To press the dog tooth gear on to the first gear, I placed the gear in the freezer and heated the dog gear to about 400 with a heat gun...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5FpdBIMmJY Since I am adding dog gear from a fifth gear stack (no wear) it will have2 brake bands (up shift/downshift) so I needed a few bits to complete. ( Big thanks to Doc Evil) see pic up in thread for 1 band vs 2 bands ( first Vs 2-5) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZVd2ldRjmk |

I replace the shaft seal and O-ring for the shift console on my side shifter...pretty straight forward so no pics or videos.
While I'm in there.... Best -Robert |

The transmission is back together and feels good to get it back on the engine. Add starter and filled with oil. Pulled plug to crank engine over to build oil pressure. Even with the plugs out, I am still cranking slow. Jumper cables only. I installed the positive cable on the starter and things are better but still too slow. Looking at a Hi Toque starter next.
Its as slow as the the stock engine. So no surprises here. So I did a quick compression test (COLD)NEW) and 125psi across the board and 40 PSI oil pressure. Exhaust was swapped over from the 2.0 and installed. NEXT: FUEL pump and Ignition system for initial start up ...getting CLOSE to VROOOM -Robert |

Crank and prime again to get the oil flowing with out plugs .ITs craning better with the ground cable to the block/battery. Put the pugs in and can count the compression strokes wheel cranking..but pretty good (Better with ground cable)
HOWEVER... The mail delivered the HITORQUE IMI starter today...so 15 min swap and crank with pugs in good and small gell battery put in last year! Missed the timing by one plug wire...or it was it this way last time it ran? Initial start did not fire but was popping and trying ...loosened the distributer and turned it and VROOM..Its alive...Continued with break in of cam. rings, etc @ 2500 to 3500 rpm Synced carbs at 3k..and timing was @ 18 degrees and can not turn distributor any further. Will fix this on shut down.. Reclock the plug wires took care of this and now at 28 @ 3000 Smooth idea at 1k and good throttle response . Next will be AFR with wide band O2 and idea mixtures.. So far the base setting look pretty good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lt5SA1__eoE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2yuMjpIxmM |
