That sucks Hector. G/L with everything.

 

Thanks for all the good lucks and offers to help. Once the parts come in and the rebuild is done, I might just invite everyone over to do the swap and possible have some pizza, etc. I know I will need a cherry picker at a really good deal **cough**Kevin**Cough** hopefully I can get one the day of the swap.

 

Sorry about your luck man, hope everything works out for you

Thanks Brandon. So far its working out ok. I just need a cherry picker to get that motor out. I havent really started taking anything apart because of that. Anyone have any idea where I can rent one or buy one really cheap?

 

harbor freight has them for pretty cheap and either pepboys or autozone rents them for free, they just hold a deposit in full and return it to you once you bring the hoist back.

 

WOO HOO...Parts are starting to come in. Got my main and rod bearings today, Rods show a confirmation delivery of tomorrow and pistons/rings were mailed out today. I guess its time for me to really bear down and rip the rest of the motor out.

 

 

I got some parts....I cant wait to put them in

 

Hunntyr: If you still need a cherry picker you can borrow mine. Sorry didn't notice post earlier.

how did you check the ringlands when you pulled the head off? did you have wiseco pistons, b/c ive never seen to many forged pistons crack ringlands due to top ringland being farther down the skirt of the piston
