Every thing is looking great! And that black sandy stuff is carbon build up. No fun, but if you carefully clean it and check that your valves seat properly, it should be all right

Hi Guys,

Im in need of your help. So I am trying to get the Cylinder Block separated from the case. Anyone know an efficient (non back breaking way) to get this off.
I have read the cotton rope in the cylinder trick, any one want to elaborate on that?

As much as possible I don't want use brute force.

Please let me know.

Thanks,

VT

I was finally able to separate the block from the case here some pictures of my motor next im going to inspect the pistons and see if they are still good. I am getting closer to disassembling this thing down to the case! Any advice from here on?

Hi guys,

I havent made much progress since I last posted but here I am still standing tall. I followed some of you guys here and got a harbor freight engine stand and fab up brackets to be able to mount them. Please let me know if I can get away with this mount without having the engine fall on me foot

. I found it to be a little shaky maybe because of the lack of support on the other half of the engine.

I am now trying to split the case so I can inspect and maybe change the crank bearings, rod bolts and send the case for vapor blasting.

Any other things I should look out for to change or inspect while/when the case is split?
