I've been busy with lots of other stuff but now I'm back at this project. Weather is getting awesome here and my kids also keep asking when we'll have a working convertible again, so I better keep up the pace.
I got the crank back from the machine shop (months ago...). The machinist (it's a one man shop) polished the journals, mic'd them and said it's good to go. Now they (the journals) are smooth and shiny.
I cleaned and tested the squirters and put them back in.
Fresh set of bearings.
I checked the clearances all around with platigauge, just in case. Everything is within specs.
I replaced one thrust bearing also as it showed some minor wear.
Torqued down.
The bearing carrier is now ready for the conrods. I'll throw them in once I received the new rod bolts from Pelican.
