021 023 025....huztl engine tips ...anyone else got any?

[cobey]

Yesterday I was installing the 025
In a 210 and noticed the little metal inserts in the bottom of the case wouldn't fit in the the machined spots in the pan
The recess in the factory pan were way bigger than the aftermarket pan

In my pictures the inserts are upside down, but I did that before so the sealer could dry, but the big end wouldn't fit, so the motor wouldn't set in the case right.
I used the drill and grinder to cut the head down to where they fit in the recess with he bolt threw them into the pan of the engine. .... hope this helps

I had the exact same problem with a FarmerTec 025 topend onto an 021. The pan/clamshell recesses don't allow the cyl bolts to seat fully. I didn't notice until I put oil pump on and rod was way off center - hitting at top and missing bottom by 1/4".
