Default Re: Micro Welding of bearing shell to rod housing bore

If read the article he was talking about Carillo (not sure of spelling) rods they are shown in the book. At that time there were good Steel aftermarket rods available.

I got to speak with Glenn Briglio in person yesterday, what a wealth of knowledge, and he advised changing out the ARP rod bolts to a higher quality bolt next time. And then the sprinkles fell.

Dan Beagle from Mahle spoke on the subject and said low radial pressure on the bearing shell could be a possible answer. This was on the AERA webinar.

Mr Beagle advised to check with the rod manufacturer on correct ID finish in housing bore. It maybe to smooth and allowing the shells to move.
