block is back from the machine shop and im about to start re-assembly. just wondering what kind of lubricant you use, if any, on the internal pieces. thanks.

 

top???

 

You can use 20w50 on the rings and assebly lube for the bearings , cam and rockers.
Royal Purple and Clevite make real good ones

 

thanks tk

 

um, you should be using an engine assemble lube. ususlly a moly based lube or something. the lube is more of a grease than oil so it will stay where you up them. dont use engine oil cause they will jus run out and you'll have a dry engine. go buy some engine assembley lube.
for tk
