Harbor Freight engine hoist? Killer!

Good luck with the project. I got down past me UIM and turn back for fear that I would never get it back together again.

 

i you sir! it's definitely a good alternative for those on a tight budget. but what others forget is an experience that the shop can never bring.

so kudos to ya bro

 

good luck on the project, the most ive done is a teardown to the bare block, and put back together, it was fun

 

Wow looks liek its going great. After loking at "medusa's head" I felt really happy that I am converting to non sequential

 

Good luck. Do what I did. Take your worst-case estimate and add 6 months to it, and that's about when you'll be done

 

If he's lucky

 

Nice post, I'm going through the same thing right now. However I took a different route, 'cause I'm not in any hurry here (see location to left LOL). Anyway I am stripping the engine first so I can clean and evaluate everything on the engine, before I pull it and have it rebuilt (or swap for reman). Here's what mine looks like right now

 

I'm curious as to what special tools are involved, and costs of them. Thanks.

PS
Which rebuild kit are you going with?

 

you still looking for a gt40r kit?

 

yes I am! Got one for sale?

 

ahhh, I remember pulling my motor last summer. I let Rob @ Pineapple Racing build the motor though, great guys out that way! It was my first time doing a motor job solo, it was probably one of the best times I have ever had now that I look back at it. At the time though it was quite frustrating....But when the time comes again, which we all know it eventually will, I wont hesitate to do it again.
