Reassembling the Block is the real fun part of the whole project. Most of the cleaning will have alread been done by the machine shop.
Notes:
- Don't force anything! (Gasket destroyed by over-torque)
- Using the right tools helps a lot! (Piston Ring Debacle)
- Everything needs to be spotlessly clean.
- Always make sure that the crankshaft is easily able to spin.
- Be careful with oil seals.
- Always check and recheck everything, because once it is all sealed up you will not be able to re-do it.
- Follow the Manual!
