Engine rebuild Part II

Rebored, resleeved, rehoned
 
 
 
 
A car with no 'heart'
Shell Bearings
engine crankshaft caps
My old engine head. to be slightly ported
Old piston and conrod. new bearings and piston rings
'new' gearbox, rebuilt, with 3.44 FD ratio
I've been having the worst luck with work this last couple of months. So much so, I could hardly stop by the workshop to check on my car. Not to mention getting some personal time to upload the progress pictures of the build.

Anyway, without anymore delay. More pics.

By the way, the engine block is 'new'. And since it was previously 'cared for', we've decided to re-sleeve the cylinder wall, do a slight rebored and honing. Also, we found out that the crankshaft couldn't turn after we fitted the entire upper engine part together, so we had to rehone the crank passage and caps. All this done at a proper engineering shop, of course. I've also ordered a new custom stainless steel LCB exhaust extractor.
Oh, and also, i've bought a new K&N air filter, and stub stack for the intake. Now need to find a better intake manifold, and maybe someone to donate an RC40 muffler.
