Mother of Christ, did he try to chamfer the rods and bearings with a carbide burr? Might as well toss those rods in the scrap heap.

Are you sure these are the bearings in this motor? Federal Mogul does make a chamfered "race" bearing.

please inform the previous engine builder that alcohol does not qualify as an acceptable assembly lube.

I literally just sent this to him, Neal Vance of NV RACING, what a fukking joke, here is message, Rob you know what Dave went through...
hi, you built engines for a buddy of mine Dave McGinty, I bought the boat after he sold it figuring I would get sweet engines that he spent lots of money on, I know all he issues he had with them as I helped him pull them all the time, I figured he had a couple hours on them but he never ran them hard enough to hurt them, I b ought boat oil temps were crazy hot (275) just cruising since you put 11lb bypasses in, (bad on boat) I would think you would know that...and cold oil pressure of 55, bad for BBC, I fixed all that ran engines for a few hours, last week I tossed a rod through my oil pan, I cannot believe what I saw when tearing it down, not even done yet and I am floored at what I see, wrong bearings with no chamfer, you took a die grinder and carbide bit and made your own, looks like rod bolts were most likely not stretched and I doubt you even resized rods for proper clearances, I will check just so I can laugh, the blow by was so bad at a whopping 8-10 hours I would use 1 qt oil every weekend boating! pistons slid right out of the bores by hand with no resistance, I know you would most likely not reply to this as you have zero accountability of any kind of engine builder, you should not build as simple as a fukking go cart engine, I feel so bad for my buddy Dave that you charged him more then 1000.00 to build absolute garbage for him, luckily I am my own engine builder as I don't trust people like you, I will be making these engines right myself and they will run better then ever! hell you even said on paperwork (that I have) 565CI, but really they are 547's, you would think a builder would know that..... lol you should retire as you obviously cannot build engines, I always wanted to contact you when Dave had his issues, you are a very lucky person you didn't build these for me, you would have much bigger issues to worry about, hope you learn how to build engines one day!!!! I am attaching a couple pics of what I found, all I can say is WOW |
