Ontopic The new car-seching thread

Ok, let's try this again.

I'm thinking I'll do a full disassemble and hot-tank it. The head looked pretty clean, but there were a couple globs that came out when I pulled the plug on the oil pan and I want to be sure every internal passage is clean as well.

If you're going that far, it's time to hone for new rings and replace the bearings too.
 
I'm getting some parts cut out via SendCutSend, designing built-in tabs for them so I don't have to jig them and I can just clamp them together.
Anyone do that before? Right now I've got everything pretty tight and I need to open the tolerances but I don't know how much. Add 0.025" to each tolerance? More? Less? Ignore the tolerance and just take a file to it?
Kinda thinking I might make these to order

Kind of like how this guy did it

It's so dissapointing when it's the littlest dudes getting out of the biggest pick-em-ups. Like c'mon guy, it's supposed to be a joke.
 
are you saying this just to feel better about yourself? I don't get how it affects you in any way and why you should be disappointed.
Nothing wrong with being short. A lot wrong with big trucks. It's the same disappointment I get at coal-rollers. It's 2022, can insecurity NOT be the defining trait of USAmerican masculinity already?

I'd be legitimately surprised if "send-cut-send" had tolerances tight enough to warrant incorporating them into the drawings.

I'd plan on doing file work to every single one you deal with.
