Still a Franz-built (ish) engine! Hopefully this one requires fewer tune-ups 😉
Sweet sounds good guys. Thanks for all the help franz with the motor and pat getting the front end dialed in.😬😜🤪. I called Doug on Sunday and asked him about the upholstery on the seats. I just want grey color. The seats are in the back end of the storage bay window bus. Hoping I can drop them off next w weekend at Doug’s shop
awesome progress here !
I want a Franz built motor too
The engine went back together today. It’ll probably need longer pushrods because of the increased cylinder spacers and we’re switching back to 1.1 rockers.
Hell yea franz. I really appreciate you guys kickin ass on my bus. It’s gonna feel good to cruise this bus. 🤪😜😂
Hell yeah. The compression ratio came out to 8.07 : 1
I made sure to re-torque and glue up the case bolts while the head were off…This engine was sure to be a leaker. The cylinders were not glued to the case very well, and the head bolts were dry too.
Speedometer is supposed to be here today.
What are you going to get done on it this weekend? 🙂
I think you need to make yourself an itinerary. Start crossing things off of the list.
Make me a list franz. I will do what u want me too. I wanna blast pedals and paint and install. Fresh air box rebuild. And get those damm windows in. No more car cover. I need wing window latch’s rebuilt from upstairs I want old used ones please. 🤪
Yeah Jesse! Having windows in is going to make a huge difference in your bus feeling “finished”!
As far as I can get for now. It needs 11 5/32” push rods.
Oil pump, cooler, coil, fuel pump, generator stand, distributor, and drive gear. Good day!
Tin,,,,, You better round up some tin Jesse!!!! 😎 and all the shit that goes on top..
Franz has you a ceramic coated A1 on the way too…. The money you gave me last week, almost went all to parts… 😎
Pat has your front brakes ready to bleed…. 😎
When ever I see you again I will hook all them wires up for ya… I can do it in my sleep…. 😎
Luck is when preparation and opportunity meet.👊
Hell yes my motor looks good. I am going to try and go by my family junkyard and get tin and heater boxes. See u tomorrow if I gonna be around. 😜
Hell yeah jesse!!! Your gonna have 2 driving buses!!!
I got my windows in. Around midnight. I started on rebuilding the fresh air box. 😬😜🤪
making forward progress…. 😎
Luck is when preparation and opportunity meet.👊
