Phone Call

The machine shop called...

Yes, the Hondamatic head is still in good!!  Yay!
They said the cam is bad though.  Blown?  Something.  This is a result of a oil pump gear that needs to be repaired or replaced.  Ha!  I tried to give them the oil pump rod and gear when I dropped the head off and they said they wouldn't need it.  So I get to bring it back when I bring the block in. 

Collin can help me get under the car using my new jack and stands to get the oil pan off first, then we have to remove the axle and get the block off the transmission...  I'm not sure in which order.  The manual will tell us.

This is great.  Once the car is up I can get the wheels off too.  I bought some nice gray spraypaint to make the rims look nice too.  I tried to clean them up but it just wasn't working.

I feel like we're so close but there is so much left to do.
