ACK! Pistons reversed!
Well, got the head off and what do I find, the reliefs for the=
valves are on the front of the pistons. I happen to glance at=
the reliefs on the pistons in my beast block... in the back.=
ARGH!
So, here's my question. Can I simply pull the pan, the rod caps,=
and turn the rods (and pistons) 180* so that they are facing the=
right way? Or do I have to pull the pistons out and off the=
rods, turn the pistons 180*, then remount everything back into=
the block?
This is a 1.8 16v block, bored to 83mm, and stroked to 92.8 (2L=
crank). The block has been clearanced for the stroke.
Thanks guys.
