My turn to get my engine back together. I would like to borrow camshaft holder tool, z-block (I already have a dial indicator), ring compressor, and chain/rod holders. Plan is to get the short block together this weekend and the long block together over the next few weekends.

Thanks

How about just the chain and rod holders? I would make them but time is limited.

I've got the chain and rod holders I made out of sheet metal. Honestly it would be cheaper to buy the sheet metal from Home Despot than the gas it would cost you to get them from me. But, they're yours if you want them.

I had to sacrifice my ring compressor to get the last piston back in, but it was the cheapie from Advance Auto - worked great. Everything else I borrowed.

FR,

Someone from Gaithersburg (Derwood) may be able to help you out, but he's away this week. When do you plan to start?

I was hoping to assemble the short block on Sunday. Are you referring to Bill or John?
