What are you working on today??

Pulled the engine a week ago, today pulled pistons and crankshaft. No 6 had low compression .
Found a piston ring broken and worn rod bearing, as well as worn no. 4 main bearing.
Next, the Block will be bored.

After weeks of frigid cold and highs of -20 (-4 degrees F for my US compatriots), things warmed up to 0! Feels so nice and the roads were clean and dry, so I went cruising in the NYB!

It was so nice to get my old car fix in February that it ought to hold me until the season really arrives!

Great day!

After replacing the TNT pie tin with the NOS tin purchasedfrom Tobias, I backed the New Yorker up to move it out of the way to make room in the shop for the next engine build.
After checking the fluids, the temp was 30° but the sun was still out, so I went for a spin.
