ya was bout to say iv done it myself too not too hard just wanna make sure to do each cylinder equal

 

Maybe you guys who are saying "do it yourself" are assuming a few things we dont know. What is the current piston to wall clearence. Is the bore ovaled or tapered? If you take it to a machine shop they can inspect the block first to see if it only needs a hone. I would hate to rebuild a block and have it use oil or poor compression just to save a few extra bucks.

 

bring it to me i will do it for u for 20 dollars. 7276457660.

 

i am shocked with most of them to some are respected and still say do it him self,i feel bad for that info

 

how are you going to learn anything if you don't do it yourself?

whos assembling the engine and why cant they do it?

 

I guess I just take more time in doing motors perfect,this is not something you want to learn,cause if wrong then u have to take the whole thing apart again..a hone.boreing machine is the ONLY way to get the walls the way they need to be...it crazy I always see some of these people who posted here always say don't cheap out on thing yet they r telling him its ok to do this..I'm sorry I guess its just my 2cents..altho I would love to see a self honed block have perfect. Mirror finish with perfect crossing

 

I was just thinking about if the block might have to be bored over...then your fucked...like NA said. Why cheap out on such a cheap thing to get done in the first place?

 

generally speaking, i try to do stuff myself to actually learn something. you feel great for being able to achieve that you thought you couldnt do before. You can tell people you did it, not someone else. you should have pride in your work and build. you dont like the end resualt, try again and thats with anything in life!

i was asking why the builder can't do it or doesn't know who to take it too?
I wouldn't trust them to build my engine lol

kj said practice on a crappy block if not then have someone do it not big deal

 

^your semi right tho I mean yes building the motor yourself is a great feeling..but machine work should be done by a machine..I mean hell you would not try to resurface your head with a dremal or belt sander would you?but guess again that's just me

 

lol
