Technical Drill and tap the crank on a 283??

nothing new to add , just trying to get to 5 pages

 

That was funny.....

 

We need the Bump
Give us that Bump

 

Oh, yeah!!.....
Sing it George!!....

 

That 283 crank has a dimple in the end to center the drill bit. So if you keep it somewhat straight up and down and side ways, the bolt should be near straight in the crank. Since it’s at the center of the shaft, being a little off would not effect the balance very much. Granted a lathe would be better, but eyeballing is good enough there.

Let’s go for 6

 

Sooo......a couple of tacks won't do??
(going for 6)!!!

Tacks , that’s what the drugstore charged me an extra 4 cents for . I wasn’t sure how you were supposed to hold them on !

 

Lets not and say we did

 

Cheech and Chong come to mind, something like…, well, never mind.
Seems he didn’t want the “tacks” to hold it on…

 

Bunch of crack heads lmao

 

I think a couple of tachs would be just fine

 

The phrase get down to brass tacks (not brass tax) is an Americanism dating from the 19th century. In the idiom, brass tacks means (1) the essentials, or (2) the basic facts, so to get down to brass tacks is to focus on the essentials.

 

Let’s not forget about Tic Tacks <sp> as well.
Page 6 yet?

 

We'll get there....

 

I haven't seen a picture of said damper bolted to the newly drilled and tapped crank.
I think we need a picture of @Lloyd's paint & glass with todays newspaper in front of his engine with the damper bolted on. Might have been a random picture from the internet.
Without pictures it didn't happen.

 

I'm afraid cracked heads would require a lot more than a couple of tack welds.

(page 6 yet?)

 

I’ll help!

Well that should put an end to this thread…

 

Those came with 289s not 283s.

 

Very nice man

 

Again, why do you think i did that

 

They also had a bolt in the crank from the factory.

 

Ah i deleted it

 

We're gettin' closer...

 

I didn’t say it was a bad thing.

 

Maybe we can get it to eleven ?


Maybe @Lloyd's paint & glass is stuffing this engine in a dodge ! It’s always a f?!$ing dodge !

 

Gettin' closer...

 

Aw crap...seems like I missed a good one. Any single post that could possibly close a whole thread is right up my alley.

 

Up again for 6
