Re: Preparing to Build! (Check my work...)
On the "2nd machine shop trip"... cam bearings require a special tool, but the other stuff can be done at home. The shop can hang the rods on the pistons for you, but thoise can be done at home as well. Even press fit piston pins.
Save you a little cash to do it yourself.
A good wiping of the bores with a clean, lint free cloth and some acetone is all that will be needed.
