You are spot on correct in assuming that i adjusted the valves cold. I can hardly get the engine to run long enough to heat up. But i can always...
Oh, and oil pressure was normal
I was able to get the engine running again, but had the same rattling noise. It seemed to be less severe at higher RPMs, but eventually I was only...
The rattling sounds like it is coming from all over. I do have an older valve cover that gives me a lot of clearance for ARP studs, and should...
oh, yeah, that is a lot more thud than tin can rattle. I just haven't been able to get it running steady enough to check the timing. from where...
Sounds like rod knock (how do i diagnose and fix?), would that cause the motor to shake itself until it dies like it does in the video?
[MEDIA] I really don't like any of the noises that the engine made here. Please anybody with engine knowledge, do you have any ideas what is...
Engine starts, runs at a low idle, then shakes and dies. I will try to snap a video to post
The fuel issue is resolved, starter is pulled. Tomorrow I will give it a test and see whats up.
nope, all is the same. crank turns easily by hand, so thats not the problem. I have tomorrow morning off and hope to get more done then. My focus...
Finally almost done. I have a leaky fuel injector o ring, and the starter isn't engaging. Gonna pull the starter to check it out, and pull the...

Finally the engine is back under the hood!! My girlfriend and I had some fun wrangling the engine into the bay and mating it to the trans. I...
Hi friends, I have finished up building my new engine, and plan to drop it in the truck next wednesday. I have never done this before, I didn't...
Just got some clear corner lenses in, and am getting an 82 grille mid section so splice into my grille as well as some 7" round headlight buckets....
Any more details to share? Because you could search craigslist... took me 27 seconds to find this, and that is because my internet is slow....
Been doing a lot of pondering on new tires. I need them, and have been thinking of changing size. I'm currently running 205/65r15 on 15x7s and...
Oh, yeah, I definitely went the expensive way. Part of that was how much I enjoy the 22rte engine, and partially a big insurance payout from...
Thanks man! It sure has been fun.
