22re Rebuild

i just want my as low as possible in case i need to get it done in the future again:awesomework:

Did your engine kit include pistons?

POS

yes it did

Most people with half a ****ing brain take the block to the machine shop first THEN order the parts to fit the machine work. not the other way around.

:edit: If you are looking for someone to bore it .010 over I'm sure a shop will do it and send you on your merry way but you are better off taking the block down and seeing what it actually needs instead of setting yourself on a .010 overbore. machine work is the single most important step of a rebuild, if you skimp there it is detrimental to the longevity of the engine. Machine work done right and attention to detail upon assembly leads to durabilty and longevity. :awesomework:

well most people dont have a hook up like i do at the parts store so i can take back whatever and get it swapped plus i know why the motor was overheating (cracked head) which is all that was wrong with it. all the rest is just might as well kinda **** like getting the block and crackshaft looked at if your going to do something might as well do it right the first time. Next time you troll my thread at least bring something relevant:awesomework:

I edited my post. and I'm not trolling your thread.

xoxo :kiss:

well thank you:beer: but you also would have been better off reading post #14 in its entirety im taking it to Jays as soon i i get the crankshaft out so he can look at it the only reason i said 10 over is an in case kinda deal, it would be nice if i could just get it honed since i have a hone and then put it back together.

also i have another 22re short block that i know needs to be bored since i had to beat the piston out with a hammer so extra parts are always a plus to have:awesomework:

Once again thank you for genuine help :beer:

No problem, I would recommend them to anyone.

picked up my motor the other day it looks great Jay is a cool guy we chatted for a while. Build up pics to follow :awesomework:

from start to finish from jays to my sammie to my parts pile

from the pile in the back of the sammie to the engine stand to the steamer to get all the greasy parts all shiny then put the timing chain on and lessen the pile' o parts ....let the real work begin

put the front cover on and the head then the rocker assembly and more gaskets a RTV

more gaskets then put the valve cover on then heaved it into the back of the sammie took it down to the truck grabbed the cherry picker and got it ready to com out of the sammie and put it in its new home

more parts more gasket some busted off bolts then busted retrievers but finally got ALMOST everything on there ready to drop in then the mosquitos and the darkness came other than that it was a good 4 hour job :awesomework: should be running before the end of the week:cheer:

bought the wix fuel filter for the side of the block had leftover ones but ....fawk trying to change it later when its full of mud more pics to follow

Glad you were satisfied with them. Yah Jay is a cool guy. They are all really helpful there. My engine is all put together and sitting in my garage waiting for me to finish the SAS first.

Word of advice. Its a hell of a lot easier to put the timing cover on. Then do the head and oil pan.
