time consuming....yes!
i talked to a buddy tonight for 1.5 hrs about things. he would like to see me strip it down and start over. im not trying to do that!!!
so, torqued at 73 ftlbs, i removed the zip-tie from the chain and started rotating. i will try more things tomorrow as i am very tired at the moment.
seems to spin freely as it is.
through the rotation though, it gets just a little snug at one point, like a compression stroke. although there are no plugs in yet....?
i am also going to call ARP tomorrow and see what they suggest about a 73ft lb torque opposed to 80.
i will get to the bottom of this!
i'll be dammed to pop my motor cause of some stupid bearings, torque, and impatience. i've got 2years, alot of time and $$$ in this to risk it all! definately dont wanna be replaceing bearings and figuring this all out from underneath the car!!!
..............to be continued............
more experienced advice is welcomed!!!
