Hello gentlemen-hope everybody had a good weekend and is staying safe.
Like many of you I’m trying to use the extra time at home to sort through parts, and I’ve got two 2.0L cranks and camshafts that have been wrapped up in newspaper in stored for anywhere from 10 to 20 years. Beyond looking for nicks or signs of heat and any corrosion, could you guys educate me on what I should be looking at to determine if these things are any good? Imagine getting a micrometer on the crank to determine size it would be a good step? Thanks |
