    hope "zero deck" really means zero deck because its pretty close to 0 is that gonna be an issue with close chamber 516's? I'm thinking of using the 0.027 cometic gaskets 4.350 bore

    ok heres the deal. they are supposed to be offset. look at the step, they beveled that corner the exact same size it sticks out. then look at the corner on the opposite shell. its straight cut. so that offset is normal or they wouldnt have beveled that corner. I just got off the phone with...

    I'm sliding the bearing in like I have before, opposite tang end first and slide them in and bed the tang. even them out with my fingers pressing down. The one rod and cap #2 I did put on backwards and scuffed the bearing so I got a new one and was putting that one in when I seen #1 was offset a...

    I pulled the 383 out of my 66 windsor

    yes I checked to gap 23 thou on the top and 26 on 2 I am putting the bearings in place and sliding them down. I losened that rod and I could push the bearing over a bit once I split the cap off a bit but it went right back after snugging up. Heres the rest. only 1 lines up perfect. All this...

    I will try to get plastiguage. the rods move freely side to side. I went out to continue putting pistons in and noticed this bearing is sitting off-set. Is this an issue? thanks

    I sourced another bearing local. $30 mistake. I did not check clearance I'm gambling that since the crank is untouched except a polish. It should be good. other than this last rod, they move freely side to side.

    Ok I'm putting pistons in and did one side. rod number 1-3-5-7 I snugged up the caps as I went but not full torque yet. everything is turning smooth. I got number 2 in and snugged it and it was harder to turn. I went 1 turn and notice I put the cap on backwards ffs. I took it off and popped the...

    a few questions need a answer please

    the stock gasket is 4.322 4.300 (this gasket below is a victor gasket) and so maybe 4.350 would be right on the money? ok maybe not stock it has facory stanps and part number but also has this 1157RS? part number also

    thanks for the replies. I can get stock shims but I'm 30 over and the stock shim was aready borderline with the bore. I'm afraid a stock shim will hang over. I couldn't see anything in the FSM about service head gaskets or part numbers. The mr gasket ones are huge 4.450 and people say they got...
