This week I finished the tear down and reassembly of my cylinder on the 3516 cat. This engine requires the you be very precise. Just how you hold the tools you are using can make the difference of out of spec or in spec, since some of the measurements require you to be accurate down to .0001". This kind of work requires a lot of attention to detail and cleanliness. I did a good amount of measurements on this engine, including measuring valves, lifter bores, rocker arms, liner, piston, connecting rod, wrist pin, and more, but looking through the service manual for this engine there is just about a measurement for anything and everything on this engine.
This week = 55, total = 564
Nice reflection, great photos.
