Wow, it feels great to acctually start putting my motor back together. I was getting used to teardown, and cleaning. But now acctually being able to build it back up is a feeling i have never felt before. Judging by how good i feel right now im probbably gonna shat myself when it fires for the first time! I cant wait! The other plus is i just got a job being a mechanic for a cool guy, and his son. They are the people i acctually bought the z from. They own a small shop, and the son is a huge z freak just like me. Its awesome. Not to meantion that i get my parts for cheap as hell. For instance The rings, rod bearings, and main bearings cost me 82 total and were delivered to me the very next morning right when i got into work. I thought tearing it down was fun, but this is just something that i cant explain. Gotta love the Z! Now i wanna drive it!

Sounds good I have a mechanic friend who teaches me everything and gets me trade prices on everything too it's great.

We have been doing the valve stem seals for the last day or so and I've cut my hands so many times .. Next time I'll take the engine head out.
