[QUOTE="Crucible03, post: 16534697, member: 200040"] The start of a redemption story. Decade ago pulled the motor and started a build, went on pause cause life for 5 years, bought some upgrades, went back on pause... I got to timing it before I bagged it. Didn't do the best job and today I've got a bit a surface rust here n there so I'm gonna tear it back down and start clean again. Keeping this "budget" build with using what I decided as a kid. The first challenge is finding all the other parts... .020" forged internal kit from SHM Port & polished B heads, upgraded all the head internals but been so long can't remember exactly what I bought. Comp cams stage3 blower cams Paxton blower Among others Here's how she sits today There's a little surface rust on the chain tensioners, crankshaft weights, iron parts etc so I'm tearing it back down and start clean. I plan on leaving the heads timed until the internals are put back in. I think I'm going to buy all new timing set, it's pricey but I don't think I can't trust reusing what I have. The other thing that bugs me is a hairline crack in 1 cam retainer but I never see it in any diagrams. Maybe it's no big deal but it's apart and cracked... I'm also confused why I didn't paint the block the first go so that'll prob get a black coat and the valve covers a red to match the car Disassembly to begin in the next week[ATTACH=full]1675657[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1675658[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1675659[/ATTACH] Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
