My 360 build
Got a little work done this morning after work and I forgot to update the other day. I got the rings gaped this morning I set the top rings to .032 that's using the .008 gap factor. The 2nd set is good they are like .018 the instructions say .016 so I'm gonna let them be. Hopefully tomorrow morning I can get all the rings installed into the pistons and start jamming them in some holes! I got my ring compressor this morning in the mail too just in time ehh? I got one of the solid tapered sleeve kind. I have never used one of those but I have used those adjustable ratchet kind and they suck haha so I figured I'd try something different. It had good reviews. I also got my oil pump put on. In my summit order I got a oil pump prime tool a oil pressure gauge, dip stick, bypass hose, carb studs, ballist resistor, and some more assembly lube just in case. Oh and my lucus break in oil. I still have to get starter, plug wires, and the fittings for the fuel lines and Pcv or breather for the valve cover whatever I decide to do there. And I dug my pulleys out of storage I have two sets since I'm not using the power steering anymore the one set seems like overkill but the other set looks like chit! They are rusted pretty bad. Can you buy factory style pulleys reasonably priced?
