3/09/2009 - A Year Gone By? |
|
| Nice - It's been a year since an update and pretty much a year since any work has been done. I would like to think I spent a year being productive but that would be an overstatement. I spent most of my 'car energy' on the Thunderbird Turbo Coupe project, for better or worse. I do drive it often now though. | |
|
Nothing wonderfully new to report but I have mocked up the engine to make
sure everything will work All clearances have been checked, ring end gaps check and once a power washing and clean up is done should be ready for final assembly. |
|
| 347 Stroker Build | |
 Just a shot of the rods mocked up All clearances were checked using plastigague |
 Mock up with crank, rods, oil pump, pickup and the balancer stuffed on the front |
 I did some minor deburring of the block - knocked down the sharp edges and cleaned up some casing flash. |
 Finally picked up the scattershield I wanted. Works with TKO, 3550 or T5 - NIB from a Dead Horse member Good deal and brand new. |
