Default Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant

Parts are a problem. It took forever to get them and then a while to get to fit. My elephant engine is a little picky on what it likes.
I had time to check the correlation between the torque plates and the heads, not perfect but pretty darn close. I got the main bearing clearance variation to .0003. I'm happy with that.

Fitting rings today. That means mains are torqued, honing plates are on, and get to use my present from Santa, my Total Seal ring filer. With a little practice removing .001 from the end gap is easy and predictable.
