Tranny's Done




Got the Cast Iron Powerglide back from the overhaul shop. No problems were found. The overhaul was preventative in nature. Can't wait to get it in, but we have a lot of work to do first.

Engine Block Boring



The cylinder bores checked out to be 0.010 worn, not real cylindrical, with a bit of houglass taper. Into the boring machine she goes. It will take 0.040 oversize to get clean and true bore holes. Not bad, as this is a standard size piston. The engine should be ready for reassembly next week. The last 3 photos are videos. Click on the arrow.
