| left side of the engine. I am going to have to replace at least one of these drain back tubes. |
 |
| right side of engine. Another drainback tube is going to have to be replaced on this side |
 |
| A quick pic of the accessory case before I started pulling it all apart |
 |
| Cylinders removed. Pistons look pretty normal to me. No hotspots on the valves in the cylinders either. Visually it looks like this engine could have gone another 2000 hours! |
 |
| A few of the piston pins had some buildup on them that required me to use the piston pin removal tool. You can see it attached to #5. |
 |
| Another view of the piston pin removal tool. |
 |
| A few shots of the cam, cam followers and crankshaft follow.... |
 |
| Camshaft has no spalling I can see and the case looks great from my inexperience perspective. |
 |
| Crankshaft looks good in there! |
 |
| Not sure what it takes to get this darn oil pressure adjustment cover off but it takes more than I have currently. |
 |
| Huge pile of parts. Oh, and one coffee cup. :-) |
 |
| Piston on the left is after cleaning it up, the one on the right still has all the crusting on it. |
 |
| I can't believe how big these piston pins are! They weigh a pound or two and are solid steel. I took this picture to try and give some perspective. |
 |
| All thats left is the block with its internals (Crankshaft, Camshaft, cam followers, lifters). I put the desiccant material under the plastic bag and then wrapped it up to prevent any dust and debris from getting inside while I wait to send it out for inspection. |
