He searches everywhere until he gets to the point where he’s so lonely that he decides to jump off a building to end it. On the way down as he’s free falling past the 17th floor he hears a phone ringing. Hahaha. That’s kinda how I feel here, the ships sailing but there’s no captain or crew aboard. But yet I’ll see this post out until the end. Today is the day. Saturday December 2nd, D-day. Come hell or high water this vehicle is getting done. Last night I found out that my lapping compound has dried up on me. It was almost empty anyway. So I had to run out to get more and didn’t get to finish both heads before going to bed. Had to come back to work this morning. Here’s what intake valve and seat looked like. Engine has 91k miles. They all seated. I don’t pressure check them but I did fill up runners with parts cleaner and watched for seepage. [ATTACH=full]1405[/ATTACH]Old skool lap job. Sorry, I don’t have a fancy machine. [ATTACH=full]1406[/ATTACH]I’ll be damned. I didn’t get a picture of the finished product. Could have sworn I did. I’ll get one today when I finish other head. As far as the block’s deck surface I said to hell with it and built up the deck with epoxy. Here’s what it looked like after I picked at it. [ATTACH=full]1407[/ATTACH]Finished product. Hope it holds. [ATTACH=full]1408[/ATTACH]Have to surface it level but at least it’s not a hole. Then I did the other side because I could feel the same thing and it was just a little low.
