Mjhoward picked the pistons rods and crank back up today Im going over to his house tomorrow to build the engine while he is at work and hopefully ahve it running by mon or so but who knows the way this thing ahs been going Im not going Im not going to hold my breathe

 

Measure twice cut once.

 

Just was thinkin Im fixin to start putting the motor back together and its Friday the 13th that can be good

 

cool build up .. keep up the good work

 

Not a problem..... you've already used up your quota of bad luck. Press on!

 

Lets hope so man I will cry if it doesnt work this time............Seriously

 

Well I officially ahve the worst luck ever this is why you should never build a stroker motor with a 4.100 stroke counterweight is still hitting the piston skirt atleast it isnt in the truck this time.

 

Did the machine shop take off all they could or just what they thought was enough?

 

They thought it was enough. Its either take more off the pistons or pull the crank back out and have them turn it down soem and rebalance it Im thinkin just drop the crank off in the morning and get them to turn it and balance it I hate doing the ******* rings on the pistons major PITA IMO. Mjhoward is at work and he wants to look at it so Im going to check all pistons and see how bad they are.

 

Man We'll I wish you luck! I'll stay tuned.
