4.0L HO Jeep Engine Build
Will do. I just ran into some problems with my trusty garage computer. It's a 800 mz pentium that has been through -20 to 110 F temps and is running Windows 2k, lol. My camera software and it sometimes don't get along and it's days are numbered.
After securing the header and manifold the next order of business was getting the harmonic damper on. I ordered a Dorman from Rock Auto thinking that I trust their quality control.... I opened the box and it said "Made in China". Crap, here we go again. Sure enough, the internal bore of the HB was .002" tight so I improvised. I used a Craftsman 11/16" impact socket that I ran a bolt through and wrapped some 80 grit aluminum oxide over and centered on my drill press with the belt moved on the press to the lowest speed. The second pic is halfway done and really doesn't show the nice cross hatch I acheived. Once the press was set up, it took maybe 10 minutes going very slowly and constantly checking my progress before the HB was ready to mount with the fit I desired (about 3/8 to 1/2" tight hand fit on the crank snout then press on with a HB installer).
