Nice. :icon_bigg
Question for you while I'm at it.
Since the clips for the pistons aren't made for snap ring pliers how did you get them in there?
I have an idea of how it's supposed to be but I'm just curious.

Thanks BJ. Your afm will be holding me over until I get the real project finished. :evil2:
Definately attribute this rebuild to piston ring failure.
This is how they came out, I didn't break any of them. :3d_frown:
Pistons 1, 3, 4 and 6. 2 and 5 were fine lol.
what i used, and this is a really wierd way but it was easy for me. I started one side of the snap ring in. then pushed the otherside somewhat in cause you're not gonna be able push it in with ur fingers i used a deep set socket and a rubber mallet. Popped them in. Theres many other ways to get them in but that was the easiest way for me.
Thanks Justin.
It's simple but effective,
I was looking at that red paper that came with the pistons that was talking about the piston pins offset. Is there an offset that you know of?
I couldn't tell the difference between the two or see any offset just by looking.

only offset i can think of right now is that there is a certian way the piston is suppose to be facing. it will say FWD and have a dot on the piston and its suppose to face foward. The oil control ring is suppose to be in between the pins. if my memory serves me right.
Yea I saw the FWD and dot also, I was just trying to figure out if there was something I was missing. I just didn't see anything distinctive when I looked at it.
Thanks again man.
