Job # 1927 (RD) - 428ci Ford
Full engine rebuild

Update report - August 15, 2010

Your engine rebuild has now been completed and we have already broken it in on the chassis dyno. Unfortunately, this testing also highlighted a problem with your automatic transmission, which requires a rebuild.

 
   

 

 

 
   

 


We have now completed the align hone as well as all the machine work to the cylinder heads. We are expecting delivery of the new rotating assembly early next week and should have the build wrapped up by the end of the week.

Removing and installing K-Liners
(valve guides)
Surfacing cyl head
New parts starting to arrive


We have now disassembled your engine and I am sorry to report that the news is not good. This is one of those cases where it is surprising that the engine ran at all.

When you get a moment, please give me a call to discuss your options, moving forward.


 
   

 

 

 
   



We have now removed your engine and will begin the tear down later this week.
