[QUOTE="pollyp, post: 534707, member: 4527"] got good & bad news from machinist. good is the engines almost done for prob tomorrow and he got the clearances as good as he can. bad is the locating notch on the new lower main bearing shells don't match the girdle cage so I'd either have to order another set of the correct oversize shells or reuse the original lower shells which are in ok state, decided to reuse em. another bad bad news when i asked is that girdle cages cannot be swapped between engines else it'll jam cos the girdle & block are uniquely align bored together. which means all that friggin grinding and drilling etc for the windage tray was all wasted for nothing and I'll have to do it all over again on the new girdle cage and can't be certain that all the hole'll be all proper align now :mad: ARGHHHHH more friggin work and time delays. not good [/QUOTE]
