Just wondering if anyone needed something to do on Sunday. As of now, I plan on taking the whole day to work on the car since it's my bday weekend!
What I plan on doing and could use a little help with as I've never done this before:
-Re-install rear main cap
-Install oil pump, pickup and oil pump shaft
-Test fit oil pan with gasket and hope that it will work and that I can install. If it does fit, I need to clean out the bottom end before I seal everything up.
-Re-install timing chain cover, water pump and power steering bracket
-Install Balancer and timing pointer
That's about it, I wasn't able to get my head gaskets in time and still haven't even been charged for them so not sure what's up with that.... So I'm not able to get the heads on and do the lifters, pushrods and install the rockers and check all that.
I have mocked everthing up and now see how everything goes together. I also have a SBF book I picked up from B&N.
I'll of course be throwin' back some Summer Ales while doing so.
