[jsayre914]

I have been searching all the 2056 threads. Their should really be a 2056 for dummies thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I plan on building a 2056 D-jet from my stock 2.0 1973 motor. I have been collecting parts since 2009 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Here is what I got so far:

2.0 motor (havent split it yet)
D-Jet system off my 73
4 cleaned & Tested injectors
new wiring harness from bowlsby
new tps board
new hoses
rabby 9550 cam kit
1.8 rockers and swivel feet
aa 96mm cylinder & pistons

I might be forgettin a few things, it has been a while. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

The heads should be sent out within the week to be checked and prepared with new seats, valves, etc. And I will be splitting the case open this week also. All the cool kids are doing it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

What other thing do I need to purchase as I begin???

gaskets, bearings, flywheel ??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

also what tools are required other than the basic tools?

I really am workin on stuff.... really


I stopped by the shop yesterday, and my case was bueatiful (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) The jugs were finished and he showed me the fit with the KB pistons. Fantastic. The job was so well executed, I gave him the crank and the flywheel to work on while i order the bearings.

I just called Dean @ Rabby Enterprises about 7 times (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) , and placed my order for the bearings. You can,t be too careful ordering parts. The only interesting thing in my build is gonna be the rods.

The small end of the rods is shot, the machinest told me. They need to be rebuilt and the bushings available according to Dean are crap. They dont sell them, they just sell new performance rods. Mark @ Warrior engines insists that he can build the bushings himself better than anything money can buy. He manufactures his own bushings and uses them in Engines pushing 1600 horses. He gave me a price of 196 for all for rebuilt and balanced. I cant wait to see what they look like.

I trust all the experts here and I trust Mark, I figure Im not just saving money, but I am getting 30+ years of this guys reputation in the heart of my motor.
