Here's the right case half with the through bolts installed.

As recommended by Dan at Competition Engineering, I got this Permatex sealant.

Cam plug installed. And I remembered to add more sealant on the other case half in the plug seat.

With all the hardware installed and torqued, the case is done! And the crank spins!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Awesome progress...Also glad you remembered the new cam plug, forgetting that tends to cause rather large oil leaks... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

I almost forgot it, since I was maneuvering the left case half to lower it down, and had a helpful burst of memory--and then stopped to put the plug in.

And I overdid the sealant. I had some fun today cleaning off the excess.

Today was oil pump day. I have played with it so much it seemed like an old friend.

As expected, the case interferes with one corner of the stamped steel cover.

A quick trim with a cut-off wheel and then some grinding to smooth, and ready to go on.

But first I installed the pump body and gears. The body was a tight fit to press into the case.

I used the sealing pump nuts--not sure if really necessary.

Awesome work, as usual. I also spent tons of time with my 26mm oil pump...but I wouldn't call it a friend. Definitely the most challenging part aside from the bearing tolerances.

Question...did you check your oil pump cover for flatness? I had heard that they can be somewhat warpy from the stamping, and indeed mine was a good 1/16 convex out before I lapped it flat on a piece of glass.

Thanks, Ian. I did check it visually against a flat reference, but not with extreme accuracy. I guess I will find out if it does not seal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Time to check the crankshaft end play.

I started with a new flywheel. The original was badly scored and grooved.
