Yeah, you probably did suggest it, along with everyone suggesting pulling it and rebuilding while I was at it, but I nubbed it and didn't, so now I am. haha.Jaguar_5 said:Nice progress Kyle!

Going to get a bolt for the engine stand so it'll actually stand, and it's possible I'll get the engine on it today.
We'll see.

Thanks again for comin up dude, I appreciate it.
My dad is a helluva cook! I'm not going to lie! Not to mention those damn good burgers I made
Yeah, my toilet kinna sucks, that would've been owned if it wasn't you that noticed that...
I love my carb'd rona!
Thanks, yeah I did. In the rona. Were you there? I wasn't outside chatting much, eating with tony and yarden and a couple other people, and then it got kinna shitty and my girlfriend wanted to leave so we jetted out.mattgo said:

I expect you to read through all 16 pages and laugh the entire time.
Took a couple things off today, I just can't figure out how to break some bolts loose on the rear of the engine, not sure what to call it, flywheel or what. I think it might be the flywheel? I'm not too familiar with the clutch system and the parts of it. I'll take a picture later.
I'm pretty sure I need it off to get it on the engine stand though...
I got the wiring harness all out and the intake manifold(s) off and the fuel rail, turbo as well.

Got the flywheel offJaguar_5 said:
My dad held down the front while I broke the bolts loose.
So, I bolted the rotating/holder for the engine stand onto the block, but I could only get 3 mounting points to work out. I'm not sure if that will be okay or not to hold it... I'll get some pictures up here soon.
intake manifold(s) off.
I'll be cleaning the turbo up a bit before installation. Tony had pointed out a couple spots that he thought some of the oil might have been going, and I think the oil return line into the block was definitely one, it was pretty loose.
pwneddddddddd clutch.
Now, onto the real question, is this okay to mount up? Please look it over and let me know what I did wrong.
Flywheeeeeeeeel
The rona deserves a little attention too!

make sure you get a new flywheel. post a few pictures. those were some nappy looking cracks which prolly helped kill your clutch. i dont think you will be able to resurface it again...
At least your lady doesn't hear you say..the corona needs attention as she might get jealous of posting pics of that yellow beast. LOL

uhmmmmmmm.
You should all probably use ARP hardware,
that shit is indestructible. I just broke a 1/2in to 3/8 adapter and a socket wrench trying to bust just one of them loose. (headbolts, fyi.)
Impact gun?
haha, shittttt. I was using probably about 3 ft of extra bar for leverage. Pwned.
Anyways, manifolds, timing cover, thermostat housing, cam covers are off, and a couple headbolts are loose, I'm done for tonight after breaking those tools.
