Quote: Mike..what about the cam bearings? Hard to believe it wasn't one of the rods! All the main bearings were OK as well? Please let us know as soon as you find the "culprit"! Losing 100 ft. lbs....it has to be something that sticks out like a sore thumb! Keeping my fingers crossed!
I had Larry stop by to take a look at it... he said the scuffed walls would eat the torque but he is stumped as to where the material came from... cam bearings looked fine, pushrods were fine, dist bushing is fine... one of the main bearings has a line in it that he said looked weird so he is gonna stop by with his bore gauge to see if that one main is ok but thats the only thing he sees but he has no idea where the crap/alum came from... neither do I... like someone went into the shop and dumped alum in it
