Re: Micro Welding of bearing shell to rod housing bore
Glenn I cant find the info on bolts or rods. Bolt stretch is .0055.
I need to finish my engine to race BG this weekend so my response time will be long until we are at BG. Thanks everyone for the help and input. |

Re: Micro Welding of bearing shell to rod housing bore
Strange.
So there is no indication of an oiling problem? i.e. crank to bearing face contact/damage? Or bearing shell being hammered (detonation)? Any indication of the caps moving on the rod (fretting on the cap/rod contact surface? Fretting/welding indicates parts are moving under load. Initial thought would be to tighten (decrease) the bore size to the minimum to increase the crush. All I got. Will be watching for responses. |

Re: Micro Welding of bearing shell to rod housing bore
The caps have dowels and the mating surface looks perfect. The upper shell is always not as tight as the cap shell in its bore.
Is there a certain finish that the bore needs to “hold” the bearings? |

Re: Micro Welding of bearing shell to rod housing bore
I've been reading this thread and wondered why no one mentioned detonation as being a possible issue.
It can show up in rod bearings.... Usually the shells just fall out....and might have some odd looking wear marks....
