| hey bob, thanx for the info
what i have run into is...........
some of the bearings are just shooth and shinny, but others are very very badly scuffed. the crank was so hard to turn i was stripping the threads on the harmonic balancer bolt.
Some other people have told me maybe the rod caps are mixed up, unfortunatley they are not stamped.
The other funny thing is that the crank was smooth until i put in the pistons and rods, but the main bearings were scuffed too. so i don't know if they got scuffed only because i had to put so much effort into turning the crank with the rods on. |
