Man was i lucky, glad i pulled the motor wheni did .
Well we finished up pulling the motor out the R yesterday . Everythign looked good as we dissassembled. no chips, scrathes nothing.
wll thne we dropped the block girdle out and dropped the pistons and rods. . . well everythign still looked good and i was cleaning the pistons and stuff up and something broke off in my hand , im like WTF? the ******* ringland broke to pieces in my hand . im like woa, ok , so thne i clean the rest and all the ringlandds were cracked ecept for one piston . The pressure from the sleeves were holding thme in tact for as long as they did , thne we noticed some like hot spots on the sleeves, prob blow by , im suprised the thing ras as good as it did , and made th epowere and ran as fast as it did . . . . so it kinda was deptressing cuz i wanted to sell the stock stuff, but no biggie. just humerous , thought i would share.
i gotta get enw axles too , i broke em good at Atco the other week , i pulled em apaprt and its like theres not even joints in them anymore , nuthing but swuishy air in the boots. . . .lol. unfortunately i ran outta money so it should be fun to find axles by the time i get the motor back.
