I'm just going to ignore the attempts to keep me on landscaping
got the heads back off in record time, just 45 minutes! I hate those nuts under the cams....
Thought I would install the oil tubes with the new o-rings...wrong o-rings. I'll order more tomorrow. I ordered red wrinkly paint today so redhead it will be.
Pulled the pistons out and realized what I deal I got...3 stickers, 2 beer koozies and a pen! Wow!

Then pulled out and assembled the pistons and rods which should go in tomorrow

While doing the rings I noticed they must have had people do it wrong a couple times...quite a warning

Recall I decided to use gapless rings to help with vacuum and compression at low speed because the ring gaps are larger than I had planned, but nitrous safe so not all bad. for those that have never seen gapless rings, they aren't actually gapless, they put 2 rings in 1 groove with the gaps 180 degrees to each other and the oil film seals them together.
3.5 hr total today
