Edit- this is a video, click on it.



So everyone knows kevin, well the new owner of his old talon Wade pulled the engine out of the talon this last weekend to strip it down to get it ready for the machine shop. Here is what we found. Whats a thrust bearing? hahahttp://i270.photobucket.com/albums/j...3-19-02-56.jpg

I have no idea what we're supposed to be looking at.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

I believe we are looking at the crank on the oil pump side, I believe it was an attempt at showing a messed up thust bearing. just poorly executed.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

There are these things called cars. They have parts inside them.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

I see a rag. Is the rag ironic?

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

And red shop rags too? I thought I was trying to see someone's reflection in the metal. When you see it you'll shit bricks.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

Click on it. Its a video

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

I was wondering what he was talking about too till I clicked on it and it was a video. lol

Re: sleepydsm's old engine

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

I didn't think with all you IT guys I would have to say "hey click on the picture cause its a video" but I guess I was wrong

Re: sleepydsm's old engine

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

Next time I will add directions. We checked how much play and there was .024. I think normal play is .002-.007 max

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

Wooo! I made it on the interwebs lol. I will be dropping this block off along with the head to see if it can be used this season. Im keeping my fingers crossed, but a pretty good amount of damage had taken place. I think that the web that main bearing rides on may be toast.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

If the block is fucked wade, I'm going to give you that spare shortblock that I havem just gotta get it out of shanes garage.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

Aah thanks dude! That would be awesome of you.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

lol. That's some pretty good play there. lol.

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

Give me shortblocks and longblocks!!!

Good luck dood!

Re: sleepydsm's old engine
 

Yes I would say that the play is a little excessive, roughly 8x over excessive haha. I am dropping the block off at John Gosh's place mid week and hopefully will know what I need by the end of the week.
