Engine build P2

The engine build continues with the hussey copper head gasket being annealed and coated with wellseal to ensure a good seal.



With the gasket in place the cylinder head was bolted and torqued down the chain guides, chain, chain tension, and the cam went in.



I then set about rebuilding the oil pump, I cleaned it all and then installed all new parts to ensure the pump is as new. The pump was installed followed by a new light solid mass crank pulley. (managed to get it in the oven to help it to fit, was still quite tight but its on, the other half wasn't happy as I squeezed the pulley in while the dinner was in the oven...)
