Re: Junkyard Jimmy Super Low Buck Build Thread

Crankshaft repair, JB Weld, already had some, no cost. Seems to work ok. I'm not too worried about it. The threads in the crank for the balancer bolt were kind of stripped, so I drilled it out and tapped it for the next larger size, 1/2"-20 and bought a new bolt, $1.34. I had to order some stuff for my C-10 so I got the new oil pan for $21. I also found my receipt for the block prep and I was off by about $40. So now the cost of the rebuild went up, we'll call it $62 for a total spent of $784. I think this engine is going to kick some...dirt.
