UPDATE

THE BOTTOM END REBUILD

Well, as the target date passed with no car @ FITP :cry:

i had a phone call on the monday after to say that my Bottom end parts are ready to be Collected

So i went to collect them brought them back and here is what they look like,

The Crank

The Polished oversized pistons

The Block

So was Really happy with the finished product from them!

So next on the list was to fit the bearings to the bottom end after giving it a good clean out with some carb cleaner and some trusty petrol

also preped up the bores with some MTX-75 Cossie gearbox oil, just to make sure they were clean and looking good for the pistons!

Anyway next was the bearings and the trust washers

After the bearings were all covered in oil and preped up it was time to clean up the crank with some petrol and fit it to the bearings

Then the main bearings were fitted and all torqued up

Next job to do was to fit the Pistons

had to cover all the bores in loads and loads of oil and the pistons too

Well with all that complete, i am now waiting on my ARP bolts to arrive then i can fit the pistons to the crank!

Also a other parts had arrived over the past few weeks

also waiting on my Deflex gearbox mounts, Ford Top Engine mount, Ford Oil Pump, and also a spring to make it high pressure

A few more shots of the cleaning progress i have made too!

The Clean Gearbox

and the now clean driver side wing

Well thanks for reading please leave comments as always

Cheers

Tiller
