Yea, yea,, I know the feelin, alrite.. I know Ive sure called myself a few choice names. Ive insulted my OWN mother,, if ya know what I mean,, At least there was a solution that didnt require taking things apart. I HATE taking things Back apart,,, Thats one of the reasons Im so very very slow putting things together. And, I take things apart meticulously, putting fasteners with parts, organized, like on heads & case sides, I draw the outline of the part & slice the cardboard & stick bolts in EXACatackaleey where they go.
YOu shoulda seen me puttin the top end together on that Raptor. I test fit the wrist pin in the piston, put one retainer in, on the bench, so I wouldnt risk fumbling it in the motor OR suffer the difficulty of installing it from the side that had the least ease of access. Test fit it in the rod & made sure that when I started trying to put that piston on it was gonna work out w/o any need for any kinda slappin or bangin,. Ohh, Im deadly slow, BUT,, I havent heard back that it didnt survive,,
