It's wat I use the 6" extension piece from my socket set as.. though it should really be something softer they say.. Just something of a smaller diameter than the hole it goes into but bigger than the thing you're trying to knock out of that hole.. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk
Yeah then I FUBAR'ed it by getting a guide stuck half way in... rattling the valve seats out and dropping it as it was too hot to hold still and dented the face where the barrel seals against! Doh! Still all lessons eh! Heads off to machine shop now! Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk
Some progress Piston no 4 is off, so now needs cleaning Last nite I cleaned Pistons 1,2 & 3, as well as fitting the new rings Started on the heads but the tool I had to remove the valve springs was not up to the job (to small) but I managed to make a start on decoking the carbon. Also honed the barrels as well. Just contacted a powder coated to quote for this lot Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
You've even got the asbestos filled exhaust shield thingy that rusts way to bits! I'm sure my pile of metalwork is bigger than that....having put more paint on it tonight Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk
Couple of bits left out of the picture Cylinder tinware, oil filler pipe, engine mounts. Need to contact a few more painters today.
Are you sure they're steps in the head chamber... I bought some , the guy was positive they were steps. I slid a feeler gauge under them and popped them out.. Have you got the part no from by the rockers? Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk
Pretty positive, while I was cleaning the heads I have had a tiny screwdriver in there removing the charcoal deposits. It has AMC printed on the side. I will nip out now to check the part number.
Can't find anything on AMC heads apart from they have a lip cast in.. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk
