And so it starts... 340 build

In short.. I don’t have all the pictures of every step taken. I just simply got busy and forgot to take the snap shots.
Below I am setting ring gap as per the KB instructions. I had my son and his friend asking if they could get a bit dirty helping out. So I let them file a few rings and install a few pistons.

Using simple rubber 3/8 hose over the connecting rod bolts and a “Wizard or Oz” Oil can with straight 30 weight to lube up the piston skirts, the pistons went in with that simple hammer tap.
