Adam's annoying ass green 620

[Eagle_Adam]

Gotta pay to play my friend.

Just take ur cardboard one out and measure it

[Converted_to_datsun]

I'll make one soo purdy! Lol challenge excepted... When I get around to it haha

[Eagle_Adam]

Time will tell I guess.....

[flatcat19]

All the 521s I've had had this piece missing.

Get after it. Should be pretty cool.

720 has plastic ones iirc

[Eagle_Adam]

My main goal was to have a unique place to show off what Jacobs making and to do that I needed a metal mount. I've never seen anyone else do it so I figured game on,


It should be pretty clean when done!





Jessi also picked me up a hot wheel




And I managed to get the KA broken down too










Now I have to decide if the bottom end needs refreshed or not

[Converted_to_datsun]

You're already that far... Might as well do the bottom end for piece of mind.
You know you wanna

[Eagle_Adam]

Of course I want to......


It's just in my nature

But that means a hot tank, new rings and bearings, ect ect

[Laecaon]

ect ect means hone... so hot tank, rings, bearings, hone...

[izzo]

think of it like this. It's already apart and not installed. Do you want to just do it now while its part, and out / then not again for 200k miles. Or do you want to do it at some random point. Like a road trip?

[Eagle_Adam]

it comes down to finances guys......


with my dad out of work B/C of surgery im burning thru cash like its going out of style and i didn't plan on doing the bottom end.

[Eagle_Adam]

gruble grumble grumble.....

$150 - $250 to rebuild the bottom end......

and thats if i put it together :/

[Converted_to_datsun]

Might as well spend a few hundred more on foreged pistons and stuff to prep for a future turbo upgrade too!

[flatcat19]

Your pistons are probably fine.

Re-ring hone, and bearings would be more than good enough.

Was this thing a solid runner before you got it?

[Eagle_Adam]

Yep, this was a runner. Just dirty, it turns freely with no odd sounds and there's still cross hatching marks.

[flatcat19]

Put it together.
Let's see it running!

this motor will stay NA, to do forged internals will cost me big time. Thats will wait for my other DE build

Put it together.
Let's see it running!

ya ya ya, i wanna see it run too........

[izzo]

is it together yet?


I heard about some road bumps. Get some gaskets, put her together n go man...
