Dave72dt Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Engines look so pretty right after they come from the machine shop Works of art to a mechanic. I think they look even better when the last mount bolt is cinched down after putting it back in the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgeb4ya Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Be sure to check the 2 studs that I marked with an arrow. These 2 manifold bolt/stud hole locations require a much longer bolt or stud. You might want to slip the manifold on to check it out. Maybe you already know this -just trying to be of help!

dontknowitall Posted September 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 hey thanks Bob, I was not aware of that and will chaeck. The manifold is being machined / checked to make sure for proper fitting. One thing worries me is that the crankshaft pully seems bend, it has a dent in it and they just put it back on.. is it hard to get of? Be sure to check the 2 studs that I marked with an arrow.

Dodgeb4ya Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 (edited) You need a puller to remove the front pulley. You can see the two threaded holes in the pulley, bolts are installed in those two threaded holes are used with the puller to remove the pulley properly. Shown are a couple different ways to pull it with a two leg puller. Either is good. Bob Edited September 13, 2010 by Dodgeb4ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontknowitall Posted September 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Thanks for that Bob, it looks like someone hit the pully and when I turn the engine it seems wobbly..did not want to take a change.. so of it comes.
