This video is so satisfying i love the iron lion motor the 304 5L is the best sounding holden motor. Well done. I wish i could do this i would love to rebuild my 304 5L in my wagon. Keep up the amazing content 😎🍻

What thread is the bolt in the end of the crank snout?

[@Joedennett69]

Fine thread. Size i dont know. I put the engine together almost 2 years ago.

[@piffiiiiiiit]

@@Joedennett69 found out it's 5/8 thread, 15/16 hex head

[@gazza116]

push the lifters down from the top so as not to score the lifter bore if you have the camshaft out.

[@Joedennett69]

I could have. The varnish was so bad didnt seem to make a difference which way i pushed them.
