Default Re: My engine project so far.....

Looks good. Are those Wisco pistons and 3SX rods? I'm doing exactly the same thing and doing the oil pump, rear seal assembly and pan this weekend.

I'm not in a hurry, too many other projects.
Did you install new oil jets? New ones cost only about $9.00 each at Mits with a discount.
How much was the balancing? My machine shop charged $285.00 and it's within 1/2 gram. Are you balancing the flywheel and clutch assembly separate from the rotating assembly?

Lay the oil pump on a flat surface and insert the bolts in the holes so they stick out above the oil pump and least 1/2 inch. Always measure the bolt hole depth too. I may be able to send a photo later in the week.
