WTF?? Are you certain? That's a pretty big screw up!

 

[BigRed460]

Im serious, also serious is that after driving all night im almost to the builder.

The keyway is to far into the motor, the seal has nowhere to ride.

Good b-day in austin, got a little wet... but good news is motor is fixed and on the way to being done.

This is the only picture of any progress, I dropped a damn push rod into the block sunday night. My uncle (now know as the push rod wisperer) got it out just now, he claims its his snapon magnet. Hopefully make some good progress tonight.

 

[BigRed460]

Got a little more done today, might start by Friday if all goes well.
