Made progress today. Amazing I know

After finally deciding I needed to get off my ass and start putting this engine together I stripped the block bare, cleaned all the oil gallerys out, cleaned all the journals and bores etc, cleaned the crank, Installed the oil jets, lubed the bores and deck, installed the crank and semi installed the main cradle. Also installed one of the plugs I had to install, the rear ones hard to get to and I was slack to do the restrictors lol

When I come home might even get it looking something like an engine

I can't even remember the last time your car moved under its own power

There was no rush on the engine around Christmas, and now work will hold me up till around the start of Feb

Will make big steps when I'm home next week anyway. Will see how far I get. after the pistons are in, the head is ready to bolt on, its all assembled and torqued up.

[Seano350GT]

if 2 people reverse into eachother in a carpark who is at fault, if anyone?

[daywalker05]

depends if one car stopped first and someone witnessed who stopped first.. but pretty sure road rules dont apply in car park for some reason and alot of people get away with shit

[89CAL]

I'd say you'd be able to claim it on insurance anyway. as above, unless someone Witnessed it and is willing to pick a side then 'noone' is at fault

is this a rhetorical question?

[Seano350GT]

Yeah nah it happened to a mate today he didn't know what to do lol told him to get all insurance info apparently the other person had no insurance so tough titties his car wasn't damaged at all being a ute and the back of her sedan had a big ding lol

[dysonest]

pretty sure there is no insurance in car parks... for this reason exactly

[t5iv]

What reason? Soccer mums not knowing how to drive SUVs?

[Robi33]

Replace 'Soccor Mums' with 'Mackay Drivers'.

And 'SUVs' with 'Anything'

[Seano350GT]

Rob's onto it.

[Robi33]

We just nearly got hit my someone who drove through a red light.

He got out and abused us.

I love this place.

[Seano350GT]

You have got to be kidding.. that is unreal.

[Robi33]

Haha, no shit. My boss and I were like, "This guy has got to be kidding." then some car in traffic beeped the horn, the guy flipped us off and drove off.

[89CAL]

I've had people not giving way correctly, not using roundabouts correctly and I think go through a red light doing the same thing as what you said Rob all beep/abuse/be gay

I hate people who sit and give way to me when they are stopping to do a reverse parrelel or angle park. No one knows this rule it seems. Car parking must always pull over and give way

[Seano350GT]

Majority of Mackay drivers are just f*ckheads end of story
