Do you just use a rubber mallet to tap it back on? Ive never had to do this with any of the imports Ive worked on.

You got it.

Do you have that puller that I can borrow? Im getting tired of buying all of these pullers.

A side note: almost broke my left big toe today. I was taking the other head off and it was stuck on the alignment pins. So I broke one loose, and I was working on the other one and it just popped off. The end that hit my foot has a 4"-5" stud sticking out of it and its about the size of a pencil and that part hit the outside edge of my toe. It put a hole in my new shoe and through my sock as well. If it were a 1/2" to the left, would have hit right in the middle of my toe and defenitely would have broke it. These iron heads are fucking heavy heavy!

I did get the motor in the back of the Jeep and Im dropping it off in the AM.

I forgot to ask you for it when I was up there. Ill get it from you when I pick the motor up. Can you have them go ahead and replace the oil pump and the timing gears. If the lifters are fairly cheap, have them replace them too please. I might bring the heads up next week. If I need to call them, I will.

Best for you to call and let them know.

Picked up the motor today, and it looks great. After class today, Ill be very busy putting everything back together. Might even be able to take it to Nick's this weekend.

I got most of the engine put back together today. I lost a head bolt, no clue how since they were in their own box. Should have it put together tomorrow for sure. Im hoping to take it to Nick's Saurday. All the powder coating looks awsome though, thanks a million Guy. Ill put some pics up tomorrow night of everything.

Anyone local have a timing light I can borrow tomorrow (Friday)??

Damian 03-11-2012 10:37 PM

I got it installed and everything, but I cant get it to start up for the life of me. I have fuel, spark and everything, but it wont start. Ive checked the distributor and plug wire order several times and nothing. The best I got was at first when I had 2 of them out of order. This sucks!
