honestly it is junk, trying to get the bolt off, i secured the cams not to move and BAM the bitch snaps it broke the 2 pins on the read that hold it in place

so im reading this whole thing trying to figure out what ur doing exactlly and so far my guess is you re-built the lsj?

 

I blew out the ring lanyard in a piston and rebuilt the motor

I did all the work myself and it has been alot of crap after alot of crap gone wrong

maybe one day it will run

summary of 16 pages

 

have faith im sure you'll get it.

 

Ur doin ur best man!! Just keep on keepin on and it will get done.

 

bd i have read this thread and i must say congrats dude you are doing a great job on the rebuild take some advice walk away from it for a couple of days then you will be all freshened up and things will go alot smoother

i get to rest till wensday night when i get my cam sprocket

then im going to return to wrench ***** status

 

The 300hp LSJ build book warns of interference, so I would be careful.

 

thank god my uncle builds hot rods for a living, i would hate to be like this guy and run into all these problems

 

Damn BD, that just plain sucks bro. I feel for you still though. Nothing goes right for me either the first time. There is always one little thing that breaks, and it takes forever to get in. Did you order the adjustable cam sprockets or the stock ones again?

 

I'm expecting to hear of completion status by Turkey Day.

Make it happen, Sulu. (or however it's spelled)

Good Luck bro

 

I think you might be the only person on earth who has worse luck than me! Good luck, hope to hear it's done soon.

 

i'd place money it wont be done by thanksgiving because its a lock something else will break or go wrong. Nothing against bdwarr but after everything thats gone wrong so far I doubt this is the last of his problems

 

I agree with that, my first balt was yellow, and cursed it was!!! Thats why I have a orange one now, and the fact that I couldnt find another yellow one in the area.
Good luck bro, can't wait for you to get her running.

 

I hope it gets done tomorrow night

I ordered a new CHEAP OEM one

 

Get that bitch running mmkay?

 

going to pickup new sprocket now

 

hurry hurry

 

Wow, 3 minutes after his post....not that we're excited or anything.

This reminds me of the first time I tore my GTP's motor appart and installed a cam. Once you get her started, all the time and money you spent doesnt matter. It is such a great feeling knowing you did it yourself and it works.
I had never done it before but by the next year I had helped 7 other people with their installs.

Now when you smoke someone on the street, it will feel that much better. Anyone can pay someone to do an install, it takes a lot more to do it yourself.
Good Luck Man
