I dunno if you know but you know how the windage tray is spot weld to those 2 thicker parts? Well I drilled them off and just used the thin part of the tray.. and just wound the studs up a few turns.

He told me that I needed to install 6 mm ball bearings into the block, so that they would. happen. Not bottoming the studs may lead to inaccurate tensioning.

Once the main cap bolts are torqued up there is no way the studs will move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
