What ever that month is that comes after September

Bolted on, that's serious. I always just use a non-splined slip coupling.

4.5" of stroke with a 6.7" rod is fairly large right???

When you get over 7000 rpm, you better be bolted on, otherwise alot of damage could occur with a slip coupling

I haven't been able to get any where near 7000 rpm for years now.

Sounds like he needs a timing adjustment to get them rpm's back.

Not alot. Got tied up with work and finishing up the race season. All machining is done, and most all parts are here. The heads and intake will hopefully be back some time next week. I'm hoping to be on the dyno in 2 weeks or so at this point.

Mains were a little tight so took the mains to the high side.

Oh and Santa Lem dropped off another present last week. Very nice pieces!

May it serve you well

put a little glue on the front of the cam or it'll leak oil out the pin holes and get on the top pulley and belt. dont get the belt too tight,it'll let you know if you do.............

Put a little silicone in the cam snout and cam pin holes...before install and life will be good.

i heard that somewhere.....

Well, broke the crankshaft on the back up 514 last night at the divisionals. I guess racing will no longer slow the process of getting this motor together
