Just talked to rimco and was told that my cases required an align bore and they are now .20 over. Crank just needed a polish. Does this mean I need to order .20 over main bearings?

You need standard crank, 20 over on the case. BTW, I can't remember EVER seeing a T4 case that needed an align bore, including a couple of cars that were time trialing weekly for a couple of years. The Cap'n

I always heard that line boing a T-IV was very rarely needed, if ever.

Jake will jump on I'm sure.
