12:00PM Re-started Install
1:56PM 3. All wiring and tubing disconnected and moved out of dirts way 4. Intake Manifold removed and engine valley thoroughly vaccumed, intake ports are taped.

1:58PM Break/Biologicals
2:00PM Resume work/will update......can't find my other Project-R mechanics glove

 

be on the lookout for a one armed man...

 

Don't overwork yourself now ...

 

3:06PM Pulley Tensioner, Alternator, Crossover Tube, Fan Belt are off.

Found my other Project R glove

 

I better hurry, huh, or there will be nothing left to do.

 

4:10PM Old(Tall) Oil filler tube off, New (Shorter) Oil filler tube installed, New Crossover tube installed (very minor filing required), Roast Beef w/provalone Sandwich consumed.

 

I hope you didn't waste too much time with taping off the intake ports. Mine wasn't dirty, so I didn't even vacuum. Just pull off the old, plop on the new.

Good luck with the rest.

 

Blew the whole engine off with air hose before dis-assembly.
Taped and plugged all engine openings.
Vaccumed everything

 

Same here ... I just did it. I think I did stuff towels in the front cylinders when the grinding began.
