This happened about 10 days ago, I was in the middle of putting my engine together a fresh rebuild with all the new goodies! I took my time, with the help of my cousin! Big shots out to him, if your into Mopar and drag racing and live in south Texas go find him! Dr. Dave out of Sinton Texas. We assembled every piston and rod one by one! Each time turning the crank to check the resistance! My bottom end went together like butter! When it came to my head, the shit hit the fan! My son was playing in the shop with my friends dog, and knocked over one of my bolt tray and didn't bother to tell me! He picked up all the pieces he could find and set them on the table like nothing happened! The tray he knocked over contained my rocker arms, with the shims and keepers. I didn't notice until last 72 hrs before I had to finish my car before and load it up for the move! So I freak out and called everyone with a Sr. for help, and they are all in Iraq or Afghan. So I hoped on zilvia, and ya I got help, but not in the time I would have liked! Plus I didn't have a computer so I was using my crack berry! My post most have gotten removed or locked due to where they got posted, o well shit happens! Well, u can call me a dumb ass or whatever, but JGY came through with the shims and keepers I need, and they were the exact size I needed! My engine is done,but I had no time to put in the new gauges I bought from option imports! For some reason they must have though I needed them a month from now! I never got them, they might be at my cousins shop in Texas! Long story short, Im in Cali now without my car and my bike is down for repairs in EL Cajun! So I'm car less bike less, and full of hate! My car didn't do anything to me I did it to her! Im in Cali with no car, will someone loan me theirs? I'm willing to pay top notch dollas!
