I've had a few people ask how the One-Ninety is coming along so I thought I'd post an update.  The rear end is finally back together, several thousands of dollars later, and it drives and shifts so much nicer.  I was amazed at the inprovement I couldn't believe what a difference it made.  After my test driving was complete we backed the One-Ninety back in the corner and got going on the motor.  The motor was in pretty good shape overall, it always started good even in cold weather and run good but used and leaked alot of oil.  When we got it torn down we found no broken rings, but the oil rings were not sealing.  The sleeves looked real good on the inside but had some signs of electrolysis and one was much worse than the others.  For a day or so,  I toyed with the idea of just putting one new sleeve in it, but in the end I just decided to put a overhaul kit in the thing and be done with it.  Camshaft and crankshaft and block all looked good, the crankshaft is still std.  The fuel pump and starter also also rebuilt.

 

 

 

The motor is currently going back together once that is done it will be run a while and then will get painted.  I have most of the sheet metal painted already.  I hope to have this project completed sometime in May of this year.  Just wanted to share.  Thanks.
