the k24a block (brand new):
the block with the bottom half of it on:
the transmission:
the $535 CAD Snap-on torque wrench:
fitting the things that measure how much pression the thing that holds the crankshaft applies onto it:
installing the bearings:
torquing the bolts:
the crankshaft:
the stuff securing the crankshaft to the block:
$1000 USD rods and $500 USD pistons:
heating the pistons to fit in the rods:
the rods connected to the pistons:
While installing the pistons into the block he forgot to offset the piston rings, so when he was putting them back in again, on the 4th piston the ring slipped out of the thing that compresses them and he broke it... So now he has to order a new set of rings express from the US because this is holding up his whole project.
It was really interesting being there though, I learned a lot :icon14:
