Project White Trash

[surgeoh]

Got some stuff done.

I rebuilt the oil pump. The regulator spring was a little short so I stretched it out to 70mm to compensate for the squirters. Also shimmed the relief valve spring for more preload.
I ground down some of the sharp edges too.

Took the head apart and measured valve play.
Yup. need guides.





Reaming the head for new guides.

[surgeoh]

Got the guides in and cleaned the head a little.

Pressure tested the head for any cracks.
Yaaay. no cracks.






Did some minor porting and polishing.

[surgeoh]

port matched to intake gaskets.




Cleaned up a little carbon buildup in the headers.

very nice work. a lot of attention to detail on the drive train makes it a good build.
