We'll see about that. I may just turn all the parts into modern art. |

This thread is over five years old. Would that count as modern?

I just lined out time on my calendar at the end of April to put the engine together. Satisfied?  [This message has been edited by Will (edited 02-25-2009).]

Q2, 2012. That's after we transition the rocket my group is currently working on from the development business unit to the production business unit.
Actually, thanks to the house purchase and moving dates not happening as expected, I should be able to clean and QC the components in the 2nd weekend of April.

I admire your patience and determination. This is going to be a sweet engine though.

Got out the parts to clean and QC last weekend, but had too many other things going on and wasn't able to get that job done. It'll be a serious trick to get the parts cleaned, QC'd and assembled this weekend so that I can measure the piston decks and get the appropriate head gaskets ordered. I hope I can read a micrometer after going 48 hours with no sleep.
Once the gaskets are ordered, production + shipping time should get them to me on or about May 1st. I have the weekend of the 9th lined out for cleaning and installing the heads and timing drive and buttoning up the long block.

Damn, I always suspected you were a rocket scientist!
