    Engine Assembly Question

    Ahhh got ya now!! Assmebly lube on the backs would remove any clearence you had! For what a set of bearings is worth I'd replace them so it's not in the back of your mind. They could be saved using some scotchbright plastic pot scrubber type material and polish the marks out but it...

    I'm getting my head flowed. Have a question.

    I'm still surprised at how well behaved the 7M is with my Cam grind, the only time it was a bit excessive was with the Stock Stall converter but soon as I installed the 2800 it was fine again ;) (Manual I could have easily gone larger given my combination)

    Engine Assembly Question

    No just on the side that faces the crank. You also need some on the flanks of the bigends where they touch the crank. There is going to be some "stiction" from the lube when it's all bolted down but it should turn using a ratchet/19mm socket on the crank bolt.

    Engine Assembly Question

    If it had clearence re: plastigauge it shouldn't be locking up! You're not assembling it dry are you? <edit> Read the full post It has to have a liberal coating of assembly lube on ALL mating/moving parts.

    No probs at all welcome :) If you were going to stay with this turbo/combination Doward is 100% correct the 264's would be the better choice.

    I'm getting my head flowed. Have a question.

    The BC 272's are very close to the grind I'm using and I assume they'd behave much the same with a larger turbo/increased rpm limit. NO you can't just "slap" anything on and expect it to work correctly. Adjustable cam pullies serve a purpose here in they allow you to degree the Cams to the...

    I'm getting my head flowed. Have a question.

    272's are great midrange to top end and coupled with a manual would work quite well considering you're restricted by the Small turbo and stock rpm limit. I'm using some hard face welded cams that are .351"/9mm lift 280 degrees duration 226 @ 50thou and have used them with a manual and an...

    This may be a stupid question?

    Ceramic won't stay put. "TurboX" works well though.
