If you are doing the above you want the oil jets below the pistons. Dont know how to install or remove them.

Hey, why are you replacing the wheel bearings? Are they bad or its just cheap insurance?

This will just be something "quick and dirty" hopefully the semi new motor will get me around until the real monster gets built

No boost planned for this current set up. Notice no change in the effective compression.

so I do want oil jets, then? Cool. I'll have to figure that out and share when I put it together.

Definitely insurance, but there was a bad scrape out of the front that wasn't brakes. All that stuff was pretty much original on there, and didn't look up to the 100 mile round trip days that would be in it's future. Got rear hub assemblies for the same reason

Thanks,
Victor
