Gramma's Car: the new project!

[njsteve]

I was getting an old pair of lifters ready to use for degreeing the cam: popping the clip and taking out the internal spring and replacing it with a solid washer, Of course I proceeded to slip with the screw driver and jam it halfway through my finger. OUCH!

It seems that the mechanical dieties always require some type of blood scarifice for every engine I have ever assembled. This one was no different. I proceeded to bleed all over the short block looking for a rag to wrap my finger with...

The worst one was the time I tried to install an oil pick up into a smallblock Chevy oil pump. I slipped the open end wrench over the pick up flange and took aim with a 32 oz. ball pean hammer. I swung. Perfect on-target hit - right onto my thumb nail. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif[/img]
