Broken cam thrust plate, apparently it took the thrusting of its life.



Its ok for my tooling, but it will eventually need replaced.

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Haha it even took out your oil level sensor.

Mine looked like that and I'm in the TX Panhandle where we don't get much rain.

Took it to my dad's and media blasted it then painted it up really good with a few good coats of satin black.

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Yeah im just using some of that rustoleum rubberized under body ****

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Finally got around to installing my High Flow 255 pump





and mounted the B&M 70265 trans cooler, set up the return line to the cooler. Can't do the rest till the motor and tranny are back in.

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Yes! That is what im ****ing talking about! My friend just busted one of my brake lines while we were about to lower the engine onto the cradle...

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Energy trans mount



Starting to look like an engine again





Where it sits right now

[LastCallKillIt]

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Another awesome thing happened. There was too much pressure on the lower mount bolt against the mount that it got ****ed up, and in turn ****ed up the threads in the k-member. Lifted it back off, tried re-tapping it and it ****ed up the tap. So cool.

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Thanks

Still true with Pontiac Blue



All buttoned up



Getting ready for penetration



Ughhhhh feelz so good!

The eagle has landed



So ugghh when I was rotating the engine to line up the flex plate with the TC I heard a weird ping sound, like something was stuck and then decided to get unstuck. I only took out the bank 1 spark plugs.

I removed the bank 1 valve cover and the plugs on bank 2, and everything seemed normal. Any ideas what I heard?

If you put that thing back together and the car actually runs....maybe U can help Romney as he has no clue on how to put anything together. Good Luck on this
extensive, complicated project.

Re: LastCallKillIt's Project: ANGRY BIRD

Pulled the front cover back off, every thing still looks normal. IDK
