My first muscle car build thread (lots of pics)
The good news, I painted my intake today. Silver metallic paint looks real good.
The bad news, I think I need undersized rod bearings. :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
Did the plastigauge on the rods, was using the green good to .003" it was squished to .003" little looser than book value, then i switched to the red which goes to .006" and it barely squishes too. looked at the bearings and they all say 0010 or 010 on them in the one spot. god damn it i looked at all of them when i took them out and didn't notice that! ugh. Really pissed off.
