Thread starter MalcolmV8 Start date Apr 27, OK I know a lot of you guys do this for a living and probably have some good tips for me.
I've only assembled a few short blocks in my time and never before such a high performance one. It makes me nervous I get the block and parts back from the machine shop tomorrow. For gaping the rings will something like this from Summit be good? Something like this? Engine assembly lube on crank and rod bearings I know.
I recall there been a thrust spacer on the back of the crank so I know I'll have to check that end play too. More questions as I get into. I know my questions might seem basic but just covering basics. The only dumb questions are the ones you don't ask right? MalcolmV8 said:. Click to expand Thanks for the link. I got it. More questions to come as parts arrive and I start figuring out assembly.

I still wouldn't do it myself and I too have assembled blocks before. Good luck!! Keep us updated and take lots of photo's of the build. I give you props for assembling your own shortblock. Once I am in that situation I think I might give it a go as well. Joined Feb 20, Messages 2, Location Texas. Righty tighty lefty loosey :shrug: jk, the manual is a big help. I'm in the middle of doing mine right now. I have to say that I kind of lucked out and I get to use my friends ring filer and ring compressor.
Are you rebuilding the shortblock to stock specs? Or are you going stroker or something else? Is that what you referring too? If I need something else I can get that too. My ring filer just arrived today so I'd like to get some work started this weekend.
I was reading the specs that came with the diamond pistons and rings to get the specs on ring gap and it said ring gap is bore x 0. Well shoot I don't have torque plates at home to bolt up?
