getting it closer to being completely down to the block...

 

and once again YES its in my Kitchen....

 

your making excellent progress on that engine. Hope it turns out how you want it to.

 

yeah... tomorrow i should have it down to the bare block. (fingers crossed) hopefully.

 

I wish my wife would let me build engines in her kitchen, it makes the beer and sandwiches much closer at hand!

 

bahahaa i know. its awesome!!!!!

 

Fuel Pressure Regulator and swapped in spare instrument cluster. Tomorrow, High Pressure Fuel Pump. Apparently my truck can't survive under 1K RPMS. I'll still be looking into that. Thought it was the cluster but both show the same on the tach. Either wiring or coil.

Day after tomorrow, HOPEFULLY 5 hour drive to NC for the week. First time I will have filled the dual tanks up.

 

The kitchen sink makes a great part cleaning area, lots of work bench space on those counters, and you can use her best T-FAL pots to soak parts in de-greaser!

 

what part of NC are you going to??

 

yeah im not gonna go that far. i dont wanna **** her off...

and the only real bad thing i can think of from this....

is the smell. it stinks. the head bolts after pulling them the dam stinch ws unbearable for a while.

 

Eh, just spray a little Febreeze around and clear a little counter space for her to make sandwiches!.........keep on wrenching!

 

psh. ive tried. febreeze aint even touching this chit.

 

Thinking about a restaurant meal tonight?............food tainted by crankcase vapors.........mmmmm good.

 

haha. no. ive already ate. this chit is is strong. its fun to walk in when i get home from work and i smell it and im like DAM!!! time to work on the engine.

 

Well, I knew a guy who parked his Harley in his living room........His house always smelled like gas and oil..............I think it was in his ex wifes divorce papers as one of many reasons.
