measurements for 5.9 B series Cummins

After taking the engine apart and inspecting we had diffrent tests and measurments to take to make sure the engine was still in good order.

we found that it was in pretty good order, with a few minor things that needed .

Cylinder head deck flatness. 
Minimum out of flatness 0.003 inches. and when measured 0.004 inches

Valve depth min 0.039 inches, max 0.060 inches. 
Intake 0.044 inches
Exhaust 0.050 inches

Piston pin was round all the way around with 1.5749 inches. and needing to be replaced because it was at the max 

the cylinder bore was round and with in limits



other notes we found the oil pump had flakes of metal in it and whernt from the pump itself. cleaned it up and re installed

Seawater pump. rusty but no signs of pitting or leaking seals 

rocker lever pedestal #2, 5 and 6 
centering opening in the oil channel, mashed up, concluding where metal in oil pump came from.

    Take a look at Alex's comments on "meticulous". You'll need to live up to this in the turbo shop.
