jeromio Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Hrmmm. How about finding a shop with a REALLY big Bridgeport that you can mount the car to. I don't see how it's possible. I thought you had to remove everything from the block (pistons, etc.) and mount it to a fixture in order to ensure proper alignment and tolerances during the machining process. Unless you're referring to some other process that is similar to decking. But even then, whatever fancy process it is (with a high dollar tool that you mount to the block??) will send material all over the place and into the bores and water and oil passages. Not good.

280z-racer Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 this has nothing really to do with me, i suggested to remove and tear down the motor, but it is for a friend of mine and he insists that you can smooth out the top of the block without removing it.

speeder Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 If he manages to do this I want to hear how it was done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl327 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 you might be able to rig it, but man i know those motors are a lot of work to tear down, and i would hate to do it twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
