    The 89 lipstick on a Pig

    Got a few things done this weekend. Got the broken and stuck injector body out. I absolutely hate that the machine shop didn’t do it when they were rebuilding the heads. I didn’t notice it and set the heads aside over a year ago and didn’t even look at them after picking them up. Anyways got it...

    Some may ask why the hell would you cerakote everything with the 2700* ceramic coating. And I would say.

    Lots of cleaning of the pistons today. Got the ring lands cleaned of all the carbon build up so the new gapless rings can go in and spin freely… only took 3hrs to clean it all out.

    You happen to have any pictures of your install? How near Albany are you? I’m up in forest grove and would be willing to make the drive south to check how you did yours, I’m swapping 1 ton axles and full idi into my 91 f150 ecsb and would enjoy some face time with a completed rig.
