truck is looking awesome! can't wait to see it finished!

 

Finally got some work done!



I'll really need your help here on this part. Is there a diagram where it can tell me what bolts (what size and torque spec) and where they go?


I have a pile of bolts and I need to know where they go:

 

I can't help you now, but in the future make yourself a piece of card board to hold the bolts as you remove them.

 

Yeah we thought leaving them in the block would do the trick.

Oh well. We have some figuring out to do. The FSM/Haynes I have is useless. Thought there would be a diagram online like the timing cover.

I'll check with the machinist to to see what diagrams he has.

However please chime in if you see something you recognize.

 

Just found this thread. Very cool that your putting this work into it.

So in your pictures with the arrows and numbers, are you asking if those bolts are in the correct places? Im kind of confused.

You could start by seperating all of your bolts into like piles.

Then you can count them and see what looks like it would work. if you have 5 of one bolt, and 5 holes to fill, and they all work and thread in. The BEST thing you could do, is find someone locally with a 22re truck, and have them bring it over. You can look at thier engine and copy it to yours.

Good luck

 

Yeah, basically I was asking:

1 = this bolt size (torque)
2 = this bolt size (torque)

ect ect


Right now i'm waiting for the machine shop to get back to see if they can help.

However if someone has this info, I can reward you with some Illuminati paper or a plastic gift card

Otherwise i'm going to separate those bolts and play around until it somewhat makes sense.

 

The best explanation is to get another T-wrench for smaller bolts, usually the smaller ones measure in inch pounds. To covert to inch-lbs multiply ft-lbs by 12.

I have had to buy 3 torque wrenches now.

 

Yeah Haynes manuals suck, the FSM (factory service manual) is better.

 

My buddy had a torque wrench that could measure that low (newtons), so from the pic above (last night). We are good.

The 1988 FSM I downloaded does not say much about the bolts though.

 

Injectors came in today from WitchHunter

EG1-80 has torque specs. Should be a similar page in the other FSM.

 

I'll print this out and look into it. Thank you sir!

 

Started putting some stuff back on. I'm missing a lot of bolts so this is just temp for now.

 

In the 88 FSM have a look at PDF page 1407, "B-1 Standard bolt torque specifications". Tells you how to ID the bolts and studs by physical characteristics, then lists the standard torque specs for each type.


Looking good man keep at it. Particularly like the second one seems to have a light halo

 

I was looking at that page awhile back until my buddy (somehow) over torqued one of the bolts screwing up the thread on the timing cover. From that point on we kinda ignored that page and used the timing cover map. That was a perfect!

Now, using the pics I took, I've done the best I could putting them back. It's not exact but will work for now. Once we start putting things back together, we'll find out if their too short or too long.

I am now in need of bolts for the intake manifold and for the rear head plate.

Just make sure you go by the bolt diameter/thread size and NOT the wrench size that fits the hex head.

 

We will do our best.

You guys will be the first to know when the motor falls off.

 

Tomorrow might be a good day and might have the motor put together. My buddy mentioned break in oil and I can't really get a straight answer from searching.

So, what oil should I use for the break in period? I've also read about a "zync" additive.

Whats the best procedure? What can I pick up down the road?

 

No one ever does! It's like hot sauce, whiskey, beer and broads/blokes. Everyone likes something different


But here is my opinion anyway.

All the real critical lubing is done during assembly, everything after that is marketing and personal preference. They don't come from the factory with a breakin done, and they last virtually forever. Cheap oil and often, the cheaper it is the more often you can change it!
