[QUOTE="PD1744, post: 1642616, member: 39284"] Parts arrived while I was away on vacation a couple of weeks ago so I got to get back to this last Saturday for a bit. I also needed to order some some wrist pin retaining clips, but couldn't find the OEM part. Found some that would work from Summit that costs $2 for a set but $11 to ship them. Eff me. Then also later realized that I needed one additional one because when I disassembled the pistons, I shot one to God knows where in the shop. Found them on the Walmart website with a little cheaper shipping. Put the squirters back in. Anybody needs block-offs, holler at your boy. [ATTACH type="full"]212562[/ATTACH] Most of my morning was spent cleaning: [ATTACH type="full"]212563[/ATTACH] I wished I would have done this sooner as I realized this engine was built with Grade 2 Pistons. I ordered a grade 1 because it was the cheapest. Don't think it'll make a difference as the sleeve was sized to the Manley piston. On that same note though, while these guys are cast, they seem to be really high quality. Good fit and finish, coated skirts and top ring groove, and really wish I would have weighed them because they don't feel any heavier than the Manley's in the hand. All cleaned up: [ATTACH type="full"]212564[/ATTACH] Bank one assembled: [ATTACH type="full"]212565[/ATTACH] I've now got a 3.1 L inline 4 gents: [ATTACH type="full"]212566[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
