What have you done to your square lately??

[bucket]

Well, now that's different

You didn't question the front tires though. Those ones are close to bald

Going down any road works just fine. Turning in an intersection though, I gotta be real cautious, lol.

This just melted my heart and turned me into mush....she has been helping on the truck, and now she is helping with the engine. Pictures on page 802 of installing the cylinder heads with her. She did a lot of work.

I came home from work the other night and saw this on the counter.

I will be keeping this forever;

Here she is helping me install the pushrods. She is using the assembly lube on the ends of the pushrods where they meet the lifters, then putting them in.

Now she is helping install the rocker arm assemblies. She first wiped them clean, then used assembly lube on where the pushrod meets the rocker arm. She also put the assembly lube on the top of the valve stems also for the rocker arm.

Here she is looking up the torque specs and information in regards to rocker arm install. I showed her the legend in the book, then she looked up the pages and found what we needed.

Man, I'm right there with you. I'm teaching my 2 girls as much as I can, as quickly as I can. I am very proud to say that my 10 year old could change the oil in my '15 Silverado without looking up how to do it. She might not have the strength to remove the oil jug caps, or the drain plug, but otherwise she could do it. My 5 year old could point and what needs to be removed, and could probably change the oil with some guidance to remember the steps. It is well known in my family that my girls will know more about cars / basic home maintenance than their sure to be piss ant boyfriends will. I've already told both of them that if the boy they bring home can't do certain things, he'll never have my blessing.

Keep it up OBD... you're doing the LORD's work in teaching those girls a skill.

I'm cleaning up 40 years of dirt and grime. Rebuilding the 4 barrel Quadrajet....almost done. I've got the valve covers off now getting ready for new gaskets.

Finally got my my door glass adjusted properly . so now my windows don't fall out the tracks when all the way down. Turns out the rear track was not bolted in the correct spot on both doors. Now windows go up and down with no problems. On to the next task of finding out why my wipers don't have a hi speed and why they wont park when I switch them to off . all in all , it was a good day .

Dang man!!! What a note! Any parent would love to get that, I too would cherish and keep that forever!! It would stay in that envelope in a zip lock bag somewhere in my shed forever. I say shed because I don't have a garage, just a carport and it would get wet and ruined. My shed is also like a small shop, I have work benches in there to work on assemblies and things that I can move around.

I have new felpro rubber valve cover gaskets. I need to put on. I want to pull my driver's manifold to put new bolts and donught gasket and stud in it. I have already pulled the AC compressor so that I can have access to the driver cover.

THEN....it gets even better!!! I came across these, made a phone call, sending him the money....and now they are mine after I go pick them up.

Notice the stickers They are like new! The one in the upper left has a couple minor blemishes, but I don't care. They are in way better shape than any I have seen.
