Re: TA_C10: Stage 1

Got all the new seals installed, all the new parts in. I tightened the single bolt too tight on the oil pump(pickup tube to pump) and stripped the threads. So I ended up just drilling out the hole to the next size and re-tapping it next size up. Got a new bolt and lock washer from ACE hardware and done.


Pan is painted and installed.





I pulled all the plugs to turn the engine to TDC when I changed my timing set and found several plugs with soot(dirty intake and valves probably) and also the tips were loose so I cleaned them up and tightened the tips.






Engine back in the frame. Cleaned up, painted, and reinstalled the crank pulley.
