OK so Im holding off on the engine conversion due to lack of funds for now. So I have this 1.7 carbed eng that came with the car. It has not ran in who knows how long but I can still spin it over. what all should I look at on this and how far should I take it down? On the half shafts I need to find the dowl pins that go on the axel flange and those cresant shaped shims for under the bolt heads. Im going to drill the bolt heads and safety them. My goal is to make the WCC05. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)

1st you exercise control because you don't want the "while I'm in there" bug to bite. But I would peak in the spark plug holes of the tin. See what kind of stuff has accumulated. Once you discover tons of crap, drop the motor and remove the tin. clean the oil and gunk and replace some seals and gaskets. Great time to adjust the valves. Stick the motor back in there drive the car!
or get totally carried away and risk a project that will last for years and keep you from enjoying all the wonderful people who gather all over the place. |
