Here's some signs that I haven't been sitting around too much. Gosh, I'm tired of these paperweights! They better be off and making noise pretty soon.
latest is that I'm on the last operation with the timing cover castings- machining the oil pump bores, drilling and reaming that really deep long hole for the spindle. Brrrr. Still causes nail biting. Long deep holes tend to wander off location by a few thou. The spindle has to mesh correctly with the oil pump worm gear, located *half-way* into the hole, hence the sweat. Ah well. It is the way it is.
