Yes, again. I started a topic cold bunch of questions 3800 regal but it turned out i got so much advice that i started a new topic.
Today i pullīd of my crank balancer with my homemade tool. My parts shop asked around 80 us dollar for it so i made my own. It cost me 6 us dollar. Beat that!! After the thing whas of i pull'd out my camshaft, all bearings wher damage'd. I am worried about the front bearing holl. The one right behind the timing cover. I'ts damege'd a lot because the bearing has turned around i it's house it's side's are shaved. Is there anything i can do about this?? before the new bearing also crush itselfs. I put some pictures with the story so you can see. Tomorow i try to put some pictures of the damage'd bearing house on the topic.

I alsow saw some rim's for my car chek them out, nice right
thats all

Looks like you're doing some good work there. I hope you get it up and running real good in time to come to the European Fiero Meet in July. Would like to see the car with the 3800 in it.

"fierofan" I hope to get it of in july but i am afraid that i have a lot of work to doe so maybe ill will be at the int meeting.

E voila New color engine. Damm im proud of my work so far.

I have a difficult question, my waterpump turns original the oposit of the crankbalancer on my 3800. On my original 2.8 it turns the same way as the crankbalancer. I wanted to use the wheel (of waterpump) on my 2.8 for my 3800 waterpump. But then the waterpump turns the wrong way!! Anybody any ideas!!! If i dont find a solution than i have to use a extra wheel to tighten my belt and let it rol the other way.

Thanks already

The new color'd engine
