Crankshaft end-play being checked.

Enlarge

Double roller timing chain installed. The cam was degree'd and set at 0 degrees advance.

Enlarge

Bottom end assembled with forged flat top pistons. Compression ratio is 9.9:1

Enlarge

Water pump and timing cover were polished and clear coated with Nyalic

Enlarge

Timing cover and water pump installed and sealed with Permatex Ultra Blue.

A high volume oil pump came with the rebuild kit. It required minor mods. (See larger photo)

Enlarge

Stock valve covers are being used after polishing.

Enlarge

Alternator was rebuilt and polished including the stock stainless steel fan.

Enlarge

A few of the other polished parts.

Enlarge

Piston to valve clearance was checked with modeling clay. After the engine is rotated the clay can be sliced and measured.

Enlarge
