Thread: Even more build woes...

Everyone makes mistakes. But at least now you can get it back together and play with her!

I'm just picking on him, we always do that.

Shaddap Keo! At least I'm not indecisive!

hey now .....I just cant make up my mind ...

my car should be somewhat done by the time you come to MD, and then the smack talking will be begin!!! again!!!

lol looks like your **** is in the ocean somewhere, hope all works out.

^^^^^^^^ lmao. I was thinking the same thing when I first saw it.

yeah if you have the DE gear in the VE pump case you got a big gap (gear to cover clearance) when it should be within the thousandths IIRC. Not gonna pull and pump oil that away. BUt you already figured it out. Hope it's running soon.

That's our kitchen table. Kinda dirty right now, need to go somewhere to buy some specialty marble polish to clean it up. I didn't realize how soft marble was. Rings and stains all over it.



Yah, that's exactly what was going on. I noticed after I pulled it back off yesterday, that there's a HUGE gap, so what you said is right. Hopefully I won't have any issues with the bearings once I get her started back up. The crank pulley was also grindig against the timing cover, so that may be what the noise was, too.

i will be doing something similar to this if i ever get my ve pump and front cover from greg. im sure its been answered b4, but just to prevent me having to go through the same hassle of mulitple teardowns. i am using a ve pump on a det what spacer do i need?
