Hello
i am rebuilding my m30b35 again..
following an oil pressure problem because I used the old oil filter support and I did not plug the small orifice on the modern block.
I reassembled the original filter support of the b35 and the pressure returned
my "new" oil pressure sensor was not working , so I destroyed the crankshaft and the engine started to knock.
beginner's mistake .. but that's how we learn, I'm a young handyman
I first tried to find a new b35 but in Guadeloupe it's complicated
I then decided to redo mine with my stock of parts
I took out from this stock a 3.3 like new crankshaft, which has the same stroke as the 3.5, replace the bearings, well dead, the piston rings, and all the gaskets.
in doubt I also remade a cylinder head like new, resurfacing, lapping the valve and valve stem seals.
it is an 89 'B30 cylinder head on which I machine the intake ducts to the size of those of the B35, because I had already machined the intake pipes of my triple weber for the B35 before.
I also changed the distribution chain, and the guides
I have an old style 123 ignition igniter with the mounting tip, and a stainless steel sport exhaust manifold
for the moment the engine is on the support, I have backed up and turned by hand, it's going well now, but I admit that I'm a little stressed by all these modifications, what do you think of this assembly, what should i expect when restarting?
