318 refresh running. My 16 year old sons first rebuild
I just wanted to congratulate my son Jason Lee (@Prorac2 ), on his first engine refresh.
1983 318. Out of a Ramcharger. Good runner, but a severely neglected plow truck engine.
Engine before
Rob, @RustyRatRod , along with @TrailBeast , and @nm9stheham, and many others helped immensely with help and information.
RustyRatRod helped us choose the cam. It's a 214/224, .444/.466, installed and degreed in at a 105 ICL.
I taught Jason how to degree a cam, lap valves, measure valve spring height, and install bearings on this engine.
We had a lot of fun. And he learned a lot.
Geoff @cosgig hooked us up on more parts than I can even begin to remember.
I apologize if I left anybody out. Everyone on this board has been like family. Thank you.
They say it takes a village to raise a child. Thank you all for being part of that village. I'm so proud of the young man Jason is becoming, and all of you are part of that.
Thank you, for everything. Eric
