well the main bearings look fine. I can't, however, get main cap 4 off. The thrust bearings aren't giving me much play to get the cap free. I may rotate the crank a tiny bit so I can tap the side of the cap with my plastic mallet to loosen it up. The rod bearings... are shot. Heat scoring and...

Alright time for me to go under the car. I'll try to swap the main bearings as well while I'm under there, but who knows how well that'll go haha :)

Thanks Todd! I plan on swapping out my engine bearings today. I'm just hoping my oil pan is ready to be picked up. It should be, it's been over a week...

I'm in need of some help, so anyone who has anything to chime in, please do. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?128291-Using-fuel-filter-in-oil-system&p=1607297#post1607297

Update! My bearings are on their way and should be here later today! The holdup was the crank scraper that I ordered from DriftMotion. After contacting Aaron, I found that the scraper is NLA, and was issued a refund for that. No big deal. Yesterday before the refund, UPS delivery status (via...

As it sits right now I am still waiting on my bearings and crank scraper from Driftmotion. I'm really hoping to have everything done by the start of school.... Next Tuesday

No problem, didn't mean to sound like an a**hole if I did :)

We are talking PRE 89. Not 89+ No pig nose bumpers allowed. Sorry dude

OP: which valve did you end up going with? Also, @ Ian: if I were to use this http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/product/AccusumpEPCValves/Canton_Accusumps , I'm assuming I'd have to use the toggle switch to open the valve while the engine is off? Also which would be the better option, the one...

To build oil pressure, I'd do as suggested by ARZ in this thread: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?79762-Do-you-need-to-Prime-the-oil-pump-after-a-fresh-rebuild&highlight=assembly+lube It's a little bit harder to do this in car with the radiator still in place, but with an air...
