Subject: Re: Update on setup by dan0617 on 2012/1/25 16:53:17 Pete, what you said is kind of my mindset. If money needs spent I'll spend it, but I have the "leave it alone if it works fine" motto when it comes to parts. Had I not had a broken piston I would never have dreamed of replacing any bearings as my oil pressure is excellent and all is good down in the bottom end. It only has about 4,000 miles on it, maybe 20 1/4 mile passes, and maybe 10 more nitrous blasts on the street. Most all the miles are just putting around. Since it was all good, and the bearing has no marks that can be felt with a finger at all, I don't see the reason not to re-use it. I always figured if the oil pressure was plenty high and the bearing is nice and smooth, it might as well be re-used. If it worked before teardown there is no reason it shouldn't work when reassembled. (all that said, knowing my luck, I'll reassemble it and have a problem with it. But, I could have a problem after replacing them all too!) |
