Crying the 066 blues

[Funky sawman]

Well any ideas on who i could sent this heap to so its done right?

Crank turns freely when bolted together so not an issue with line bore

Waiting on an answer from someone. My first person I would say would be Rick Hennesee but I have no idea how to get ahold of him.

Send a pm to Mattyo
He milled my cases, he can do it with the crank in.

 

[Funky sawman]

That would be awesome, would hate to waste my case gasket lol

First off it’s way more than a five minute job to get the case clamped down solid and 0 run out.

Secondly, I’d want the crank and bearings out.

These are just my opinions

 

[ManiacalMark]

5 minutes was an exaggeration but not hours to setup either.

So what are we looking at here? 70 an hr

The best way to do it is to use a rod on v-block with proper made bushings in the bearing bores. That way the gasket surface is true with the crank.

Doing it the way Matt does it you're compounding errors and putting a lot of trust in the original machine work. Which we can see, isn't the best.

Yeah I think I'm at a loss with this case. Just split it and found the case half gasket not sealing either. Warped case? Were the screwdriver tip is the gasket is loose with the cases tight together

A light sanding on a granite block or pane of thick glass will fix that.

Affordable option?

 

[Funky sawman]

Don't feel safe putten 300 dollar crank in this case...would you?

 

[Funky sawman]

I'm sure I found my issue now. I have a big bearing shortcase flywheel side.then a small bearing pto side. Lots of stuff dont line up looking at it closely. Well that the price I pay getting in a rush!

 

[ManiacalMark]

At least you found out what the deal was

 

[Funky sawman]

Never seen one that bad before. Are you sure those cases are made to go togetber?

100 percent correct kevin. I also found that case volume was different between case halves

Glad you figured it out
