Maybe I'll activate 009 aka Heidi to sabotage you. So hush up Honky.

Spent a little time on Paul's motor tonight. Got the rod bearings blueprinted. Those Scat rods are sweet! 8-)

Here's some pics

Torquing down the rods with the bearings in place

Measuring the bearings

Writing down the measurements for each rod in 4 places

All the rods measured

Measuring the crank rod journals

Rod bearing blueprint. Everything measured, and averages, min, and max clearances calculated.

So now I have the main, rod, and cam bearings all blueprinted. I have some odds and ends to do on the case and then it will be time for a mock up of the short block. If everything looks good there I'll button up the bottom end. 8-)
