[@mizeadventure9438]

[@cre8tivegarage157]

This was a nice video! Love the build on this.

[@mizeadventure9438]

heck yeah! thanks for the support

[@pzzcc]

Thx for video. Where can i buy a manual like the one you have ?

[@GridIndustries]

Subbed! I have an 83 i'm gonna be tearing into soon. It's been sitting a long time, i wanna try to get it running first.

[@mizeadventure9438]

hell yeahhhh!! shouldnt be to hard to get her to pop off. let me know if you need any help or parts

[@GridIndustries]

@@mizeadventure9438 I got a desmogged carb for it, fabbed an egr block off plate from the part. I just need to finish the desmog and get everything hooked up. It turns over easily with a breaker bar on the crank.

[@mizeadventure9438]

@@GridIndustries oo yeah the desmog will make it even more simple to get her going. those VAC lines can be a painnnnn.

[@GridIndustries]

@@mizeadventure9438 yes, I'm not going to try and track down vacuum leaks, so I just start cutting stuff off and worry about the few I need lol. Did you do anything to bump your compression up? I think it's stupid low on these engines.

[@mizeadventure9438]

@@GridIndustries yeah on the motor im building im doing a few things. ill be talking about that in future EPs of the motor rebuild series.

[@mizznfizz1]

Now that you got the head off, don't forget to redo the galley plug so you don't have a random catastrophic failure... And paint the damn head!!! I completely forgot to do mine after I had my head work done, then reassembled everything and was like $*)@*!!!!

[@mizeadventure9438]

ill get to all that stuff! need to finish machining things first. paint will come down the line. Probably just going to do black. Nothing fancy.

[@frase1234]

Was that rotating thing a GLASS BEAD BLASTER that the Head & Block sat in for 2000 YEARS ? - (G'Day from Melbourne, Australia)

[@mizeadventure9438]

Shot peen machine. Pretty cool machine makes the castings like new

[@tombrown879]

WHAT??? i did not get a notice for the part one. OK,, i need to go back now. haha

[@tombrown879]

I made it back. This is going to get good. can't wait to here the plans for the upgrades.

[@mizeadventure9438]

HAHA yesss! its really going to start getting cool in PT3. we start machining everything. So let me know if there is something specific you want to see during that process.

[@tombrown879]

@@mizeadventure9438 would like to see how to balance the rotating assy if possible. also. are you using factory rods and facory oversized pistons? or going to the aftermarket chevy style rods with costom pistons? also always love to see porting of the head-intake.

[@mizeadventure9438]

@@tombrown879 well stay tuned. going to be doing all that stuff in the near future. also be reviewing what parts we are going with. just started ordering things today/last week so once its all set in stone ill start talking about it.

[@bloodybuzzardbindel3555]

Everything reusable I assume

[@mizeadventure9438]

yes we measured everything and its all in spec. So a motor that have 256k on it i think thats damn good. We could of done new rings and just put the motor back together. But i figured if its going to be apart why not make it a little better. The fun really starts in the PT3 when the machining takes place.
