    Jimi's build update

    Update on the motor: Jarco called me today to let me know the crank was bad, so they replaced it, put in new bearings, and a new HKS MHG. They said it was buttoned up and should ship out today. The bad thing is, I just ripped my thumb out of joint working on the BMW. I was wrenching down a...

    horsepower gain?

    Whoa, WTF was I thinking:nono: Thanks for making me do a double take on that. You are correct sir! Even knowing that .04 is aprox 1mm, it didn't hit me how off that was. I will have to try and find that link I was looking at, but I'm sure it probably said .004 ish and not .04 :icon_redf I...

    horsepower gain?

    No real gain from .04, You have to realize that is not much bigger. The main reason for boring our engines is just to get everything back "straight". Stock is 3.267", and .04" Over bore = 3.307"

    This is the racing I like to see

    Yeah I've seen that one too, :aigo: crazy. If you ever go to CO, go to Pikes Peak, you can pay a small fee (toll road) to drive the full road. It is insane when driving up it to think about the people haulin.

    Vid of my engine running / also whats the sound?

    Yeah I primed it, and everything is new. I just got off the phone with them and they said they pulled the bearings and didn't find any that were bad. Tomorrow they said they will pull the head off and see if they can find whats up. I guess a bad wrist pin, or improperly sized piston? But...
