Thanks for the pics ! Mines back from QMP waiting on me. (I've been busy working on my Duster's indy motor.)
I noticed you had to grind a fair amount for the rod clearance,did you also have to grind for the crank throw clearance ?
Who's lifters are you using ?
I'm sure you posted it earlier but how big is it ?
I did grid a bit of rod clearance but I'm using BME 500 Rods (Pretty Big).
The only place the cranksahft did rub a little was on the front counter weight was not chamfered like the rear. It is a little spot were the machine work on the ritter block doesn't go down deep enough, no big deal just a few second with a die grinder and whala!
