the engine is at the machinist and i can't check, but do the piston oil squiters need to be installed before the crank/rods? i can't remember what order i disassembled it in, or if they were accesible with the crank installed.
oil squirter question
- Thread starter selfinfliction
- Start date
Easier before but can be done after.
Good idea to by new valves/bolts for them at this point as the springs can sag a touch over the years and this will affect idle pressure if they have.

Surely, you did not need to post to figure this out. And if you did, you probably, shouldn't be building the engine yourself.
Some people like to have all their ducks in a row before they begin....
I'd rather people ask what seem to be stupid questions than not ask and make a mess of things. (I've read 4>5 threads today where the latter has happened)

Better to ask then assume and make an ass out of yourself
i find on just about any forum, either way you can potentially make an ass out of yourself.

thanks for your concern, but why i was asking is because the machinist has my motor apart at the moment while i wait for the bearings to get in, and i was going to order the new springs and get them installed before he assembled it IF they needed to be installed before the bottom end was assembled, or if i could just do them when i get it back at my garage and it was already assembled
