Not So Pro 3

Update, or same again?

That really sucks. Has GM made a revision to the pistons for these, or do the cracked ones get replaced with same thing?

I don't know the answer to that.
Auto companies change parts suppliers and manufacturers constantly. If theres a part number supercession it's likely a revised part or new supplier.
Or it's replacing it with the same *s-word I'm removing.

Block will stay in.
Remove cylinder head, front cover, oil pan.
Parts are ordered.
I'll get to it first week of May..
I leave for vacation this Saturday and I won't have to worry about one of the vaginas I work with doing the job. Customer will continue to drive it until then.

Finally got approval on the sized 3.6.
Need to get the flexplate and torque converter off....


Crankshaft can't stay seized if it's liquid..

Well...

My 261 I bought in November of 17' finally had enough of me..

There's a big crack on the intake side of the piston and a few chunks broke off..

It doesn't owe me anything so I'm not super pissed off.

Good morning men.

Love,
Sawmikaze.

Evening weiner whompers!
Its warm-ish in Fitzgerald GA this evening, but the wind is blowing 97 mph in a north-east-South-west-ish direction.
Theres also not a cloud in the sky, so the big yellow hot thingy is staring DIRECTLY at my pasty arse. Time for some sunblock.

I might keep it for parts. Haven't decided.

I framed houses the size of shopping malls for 16 years, hanging doors is a cake walk.

I don't know if I wanna spend any money on it.
