The build of "Wh4t3v3rs"

[Wh4t3v3rs]

With that blood on it, it looks like one of my projects now...

Blood, sweat, and tears. . Tears of joy or tears of pain, only time will tell!!

Not much of an update, but here's where I left it off with the heads torqued down and things starting to go back together. I decided to replace the oil pump, juat cause, and I've got a 1 piece timing chain tensioner coming my way. Then I can button up the motor and set it back in that truck and start attaching ****!!!

Juat gonna share a little secret. If you have a Gen IV with VVT, and you want to delete it. Normally you would juat use a Valley cover with the o-rings, but if one of those o-rings fail, more then likely your motor is going to fail. So, as a safety we plug those holes. We use the rollers out of a bearing.

Do you just pound them in?
Like a friction fit?

Yes sir! Then I used the ICT Billet valley cover with o-rings. Peace of mind!

Well, 3030 Autosport called me today and informed me that it woukd be another 2 weeks on my wheels..... Uuuggghhhh!! Oh well, that tells me how long I've got to get it back rolling!!! Lol

You so deserve to get out and enjoy this thing dude. I’m pulling for you!

The bearing roller tip is great! I’d never heard of that before.

 

[Erik the Awful]

Does any A37 bearing work for that? I'd worry that different manufacturers have different size rollers, but I could be wrong.
