Great pics!

I wish I would have taken more of mine when we did it.


What pistons/rods did you use?

That, my friend, is bee-you-tee-full work you've done. I'm pretty good with car work, and I probably could have done my TT install myself (although I did not), but you, sir, are light-years beyond me!

Good job!

Dave

next time you torque down your head studs dont use an extension try using a good deep socket. Engine looks awesome!

awesome! we need more people like you on these forums!! DIY FTW!!!

btw what parts did you use on the engine? Any tips or suggestions on engine building yourself? I'm planning to build my own too. Is this your first time building an engine? did you just follow the service manual?

I'm just afraid of using the micrometer, making sure i use the correct bearing sizes, claying the motor clearance correctly etc etc

thanks for sharing!
