Builder said get two. At 8 bucks each if I don't need them I don't care.

 

See that was what I was saying!

 

You can never have too much lube but running out is always bad.

 

Did the same with the Silicon. Got two just in case.

Coming Monday.

Actually tracking shows it arrived at my local P.O. at 5am.

 

Silicone

 

holy crap, that is SOOOO much more than what you will need, haha. I didn't use all of the Nissan silicone that came with the gasket kit

 

37 bux including the gun.

 

the gun will make it easier. The timing chain covers have a crap ton of silicone that goes on them

 

dear lord....you can seal up like 10 engines with that much rtv. lol

 

0 hai.

 

Good luck. Been following your stuff for a while.

 

you just needed the assembly lube for the bottom end assembly, correct?

 

I used it on my cams too

 

Z motor on stand.


Acura motor on hoist awaiting pickup.

 

Here is where the Z motor sits and will for about a month.

 

I haven't had great luck with that great stuff rtv. I go to nissan and get the factory grey stuff or the toyota black. The new Nissan stuff comes in a tube that fits in a caulk gun.

 

The mechanic that is doing the final assembly told me to get it. I never heard of it before. I'll ask if he is certain seeing as I do not want leaks.

Thanks

I'm sorry if I missed something, but I thought the mechanic was going to be working on it for the next two or three weekends to finish installing the motor? Something happen? Please say "no"....I think I'm one of many on my350z that is pulling for you big time for your build to be complete.

It was over 2-3 weekends supposed to start 10/15. Now due to my Wife needing an operation 10/3 I hope to start 11/5 but an waiting to hear back from the mechanic. I found out Friday the insurance refused to pay so we have to.

 

Aw man, so sorry to hear that dude. Thoughts and prayers for a smooth operation for the wifey.

Can't stand insurance companies man, such scammers (most of them).
