So i'm almost done with my longblock assembly and i should be able to put it back in the car next week.

But while i was working on the motor today, i was wondering, for all you that have reassembled motors yourself, did you run into any problems with leaks and such things like that. Any problems that made you take out the block again and add something.

For you pussies that pay for installtion, dont speak. LOL jk

 

no issues, just make sure you install all orings and tighten all bolts

 

we will see when i blow pass you on the highway

 

You sir, are a *****. LOLOL You probably will blow me in your car. And i guess that comment can go both ways.

Anyways, lets keep this on topic

 

See the thing is i have 2 little O rings left but i dont know if they belong to the oil pump or maybe somewhere around the rear mail seal cuz i didnt install eithe rof those. I think the overhaul kit came with 6 little black O rings. i swapped out 4 but 2 left. Other than that, i got everythin else under control.

 

Did you get all of them behind the rear timing cover? I don't remember off hand, but you should use all 6:

1 per head, two that rest in the block, and 1 per side of the front side of the rear timing cover.

 

I think so. I got 2 big ones back there and i beleive 4 little ones.

 

So just two little ones left, then?

Nevermind, there are 2 per head, and 2 on the front of the rear timing cover.

 

i'll blow your doors off in my car...

i'll be a spec in the distance on my bike..

i'll see you when it snows in my jeep..

either which way.. you are smelling my exhaust

 

Don't forget the inner upper oil pan bolts
The 2 cam gear covers have a little o ring that fits on the inside of each cover.
Did you change/ replace those ones? You have to stretch & slide them on the shaft carefully.

 

INner upper oil pan bolts?

I know on the outside of the front chain cover, there are 2 special type of o ring sealers for that but thats not what im talking about.

there are 2 black small rubber o rings that go somwhere.

 

you know what, i gotta double check the timing cover like in the bottom diagram. that just might be it. i dont remember if i swapped those or not

 

Yeah, inner upper oil pan bolts. Mine were forgotten & the gasket seal blew out. I searched for weeks for this stupid leak. The oil was so clean it was nearly impossible to find where it was leaking from. With the lower oil pan off, you can look through & see where they go.

 

any pics of what your talking bout cuz i dont have the motor in front of me so i cant just check,

 

I imagine he's talking about these:

 

Damn, you beat me to it

Here is a real pic of the o ring you guys are talking about from another members car.

 

you know what, i dont think i put those in. That must be it. Ill check later.

 

ya but what does that have to do with o rings.

 

Nothing:

 

HAHAHA. then what the hell was the whole point of this conversation.
