SLANTY BLUES

The data is just not syncing up.

exactly,, the original posted already wasted one motor, and the data being supplied currently has to have errors in it.

I know they are not exact #s.

But the numbers need to be exact or a second engine will be wasted

Al, I think that is the original poster,,, don't take it the wrong way, but maybe you are not the right person to be checking and
assembling your engine.
There is a guy that posts on this forum for time to time,, Charlie S, that is in FL, a bit north of you. Charlie knows slants.
Charlie is a mechanic by trade, so he would need compensation, free don't pay the bills,, but you would do it once, do it right and
be able to really enjoy that nice van that you have.

just my recommendation from following these three pages of posts and trying to help



I believe I have talked to the same Charlie S Before, on other matters. I have built, rebuilt, numerous engines in the past, Never had this problem . Just frustrated right know. Thanks for your help also.
