Re: 51' 3100 build in PA New to Site

April 10th weekend,

More problems for me. I have two 355's. One my buddy found out the crank was turned and someone put standard bearings in it, plus he said the crank will need polished now. The other 355 that I wanted to have running this weekend has a broken piston, I assumed atleast rings but didn't expect that. So really all I need is a set of pistons for that and I can have it back together and running.

So I got my front clip off, to make installation easier.

Buttoned up some fuel line, but wasn't sure if running them here will work
or not because of the sway bar, not sure if it comes up that high if I hit a mad bump. Any advise will be appreciated. I was just going to run rubber hose to the fuel pump from this point. Also drilled and tapped my cap for the tank breather valve, as tanks inc didn't have a return line opening. So I used the breather valve for the return line and didn't want to drill the tank so here is what I came up with.

Got running boards on finally.
