Re: JPOR: Piston removal

Obi, I agree the theory is the same for all of them, I just want a manual
that has all the "old timers" tricks. You know like how to make sure the cam
does not walk by doing this and cleaning the burr out of that, over the
years I found xxx spec works better then the factory spec for thus and so
reason, If you tweak this shim and adjust that doohickey then you get a
benefit of this. Be careful when installing this because if you don't get it
right then the motor will leak this because they are known to. Or install
this now because it will make step 42 below a whole bunch easier even
thought the factory says to do this other way. Basically I know all the
theory to completely rebuild an engine. I just want to know all the tricks
to making it last longer and run smoother etc and no book has that for
AMC's. Hope that makes sense.
