take a picture of the end of the camshaft...the bolt heads. and a picture of the back of the oil pump . please rich Slightly shows on the bolts, the pump took the worst of it. When you use a type 1 pump not only will the tang be an issue, the body of the pump will need some means of spacing so the outlet and inlet holes line up with the galleries in the case. Like a spacer between the case and pump. I think I made one at 0.080 thick, but it might have been more. The cam bolts hitting the pump are an issue as well. I still am having trouble understanding the 180 degree bit affecting the tang clearance. From what I am seeing it seems like interference with the cam stressed and broke the thrust bearing and ruined the soft aluminum gear teeth, and alignment issues starved the rest of the motor for oil. Sound like a reasonable scenario? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pinch.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) I agree that having a qualified air cooled machinist looking at the case is worth the trouble. |
