I had a good day today.

I tried my BDG head (2ltr) onto my 1700cc block and found that the valves clear the bores by 0.25mm so that's a result. :thumbsup:

I never thought to check before. :oops:

 

Then I put the crank into the block,assembled the pistons onto the rods and then fitted them to the crank.It turns over nicely by hand so I'm very happy. :D

been working on the fiesta all weekend dam thing has been kicking me in the nuts for months but it's finally running doesn't start every time because the starter motor keeps jammin but traced the problem to the engine because i've replaced the gearbox, startermotor, drive shaft's and disconected unimportant items like water pump and alternator drive shafts to test it but still had the prob :banghead::banghead::banghead: so replaced the gearbox and it still does it :banghead::banghead::banghead: so it'll ether sort it's self out or go bang :dope::dope: but at least it's running at last :lol::lol::lol:

Just put my escort on a rota jig but the garage is just a tad too low to turn the car all the way over and because of the over hang of the garage front i cant push the jig out then turn car over :dope:

 

Kinda defeats the object of having a jig :oops:
