| Got it home sitting on the workbench ready for surgery. |
| I place my CHT rings under the cylinder head bolts. |
| My other helper... Dad |
| With this method, you only need to take one circlip out. Wrist pin removal is easy using this method. L small socket, R is larger socket. Clamp used for squeezing out wrist pin. |
| Seems like a lot of carbon build up to me. Others say this is average. Probably just depends on who you ask. |
| My engine sits inverted on my Challenger, so the underside of pistons also have carbon build-up. I placed in kerosene over night. |
| Cylinder heads. I used a sharpend wooden dowel and a old credit card for my carbon removal. Oh yeah, did I mention I also used A LOT of elbow grease! |
| Wrist Pin.. Looks good |
| 32 free floating pins! makes you want to scream.. trust me. |
| Trick I used from J. Lartin's website. Worked like a charm! I did place the wrist pin in the freezer, along with heating up the piston to make them fit during reassembly. |
| The all dreaded Circlip.. Very difficult to place back on if you have never done it before! It is doable thougth. |
| Putting it back togther.. pretty easy at this point. |
