So.... the weather is getting a bit better and I spent the afternoon in the garage yesterday. I got the front stack put together (about .002" end play) and reassembled. Getting the gear on the oil pump probably took more time than everything else combined yesterday!!
That damned woodruff key kept sliding out, finally I just crazy glued the bitch in place!
I didn't put the oil pan on yet, gunna wait a moment on that to be sure the temperature isn't going to plummet again (I'd rather let it cure in 40-50 degrees or higher). That... and I want to finish thoroughly cleaning the contact surface for the oil pan, as well as clean the shit out of all the pan bolts.
I pulled my fuel rails and injectors out (those are going to a buddy for temporary use up to and including DGRR) and gave them a wipe down, test fit the new (to me) TD61 turbo, and broke out some of the goodies that have been hiding in shipping boxes all winter.
