To the guys that have had to honed-to-fit these things ....what have you used to do-so ?




A small engine hone...




I had it done at the machine shop , he measured it and did it in the rod hone .




I try to do everything myself, bad habit I have.

It seemed like a precision operation to me so I thought I'd leave it to a trained professional , plus he only charged me 20 bucks. I'M like you though and I try to do as mauch as possible myself , which is why I rarely finish anything I think.

It is a precision job, for sure. I have a dial bore gauge and a set of mics, No different than fitting bearings.

yup finishing stuff is the toughest unless you got a guy waiting to drive it, story of my life.

X2. ATI recommends .008"-.0011 interference fit. I mic'd the crank and dropped the balancer off at the shop. As it turned out the balancer was within spec as delivered.

These are the instructions that came with a buddy's CCJ balancer:

I just finished putting my dampener on (PRW) Man what a pain--I heated it up in water and used anti seize--but it went on hard all the way. The instructions didnt say anything about honeing and I didnt think of it

Man that thing is going to be a pain in the ass to get off




Consider that a gift. Mine hit the timing tab before it even touched the crank when I tried to fit it...before I found it didnt fit the crank.

Onto the "shelf of stOOpidity" it went!

question on the spec, .008 OR .0008 ??? .008 you would need to use a 100 ton PRESS to get that on ...

Yep he needs another 0 in there for sure.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
