I was also thinking maybe we could crank it without the injector fuse to simply run the pump and get some oil moving
everything was liberally assembly lubed, and since we didn't replace anything in the bottom end bearing wise, i feel like i'd be ok on conventional oil, maybe add some lucas to it idk. well see what the break in stuff sells for

so! there's a possibility that we won't have a lift available tonight or even tomorrow 
the guys in the shop are hella busy so we'll see. if nothing else there's still plenty we can do today to get prepared for when he have an hour or two to use the lift

Haha good deal! :Twothumbs
Ahh, my whole winter (perhaps life) has led to this point.
The only doubt that i have about starting is perhaps that cam position sensor that your how to showed being shown wrong in the book. I think we wound up going by the book but i forsee us having to change it.

If you set it like the book it will set the cps code and give u a hard start.

Ok, they are so we should be good.
To be truthful, two of my buddys did all the timing stuff one night while i was at school
so minus seeing the cam gears like that i didn't see the rest of the process, and i doubt they did your slack removal trick.
another thing, now that i've been relooking at your how to, i am not positive if we used the flange sealant on the rear cam caps....

Supposed to be warm out and we have a heater and the garage floor is pretty nice and clean...
i just need to know approximately how high we need to lift the ******, and idk how were gonna lift the cradle up into it, sounds like a royal pain in the ass but this *****'s gotta get on the road.

never mind he took it out the top. Just guessing and with my hand measuring in the air, it should be do able. It will be a close fit, but I bet you will have no problems getting it back in. We slapped a 428 cj and c6 tranny in my dads 77 step side f100. We had to deflate the tires and put it on rims to clear or the hood. I know if that is do able you got this.
