It's going to be a little over a week before I can get back to working on the Old Girl. I'm booked solid with other obligations. I'll take the time to reflect, make some decisions about her, and look for more pieces for her. As well as dream about riding her again!

This beautiful piece came this week, along with two sets of rings from LM. All I need now is the time to get going on the Old Girl again. I'm hoping to find that time next week.

Hi,

Not only for liner replacement but also for cam shaft disassembly and assembly and piston pin re movement. Not to mention using the dish washer for all kind off cleaning,

Jensen, thank you - good points. However - I draw the line at using the dishwasher! ;~)

Hi,

I always explain my wife that a dishwasher cleans itself, for some reason that explanation doesn't work.
