Yea the copper dissolve in oil and provide better lubucation. Also prevent leaks and fill up scratches on cylinder wall.

**MartinGouda** · 12-06-2004, 01:49 PM

and if you go over $0.01 at the pump you can get it outta there and pay them

**Pineapple** · 12-07-2004, 09:57 AM

Need I say more?

**MartinGouda** · 12-07-2004, 10:01 AM

pull yoru old ones... then get those reground

**Pineapple** · 12-07-2004, 10:18 AM

Think they can fix the head? Its the most expensive part beside all the new bearings.

**MartinGouda** · 12-07-2004, 10:30 AM

not going to fit it at all... jsut sayign they are probabl better to grind now..

**Pineapple** · 12-07-2004, 10:35 AM

Weld and regrind the bearing oversize. Clean and machine head bearing over size also. Totally custom head.
Don't know if I still wanna pay. $3000 down the drain.

**FlyCanadianGuy** · 12-07-2004, 02:45 PM

What is the last pic of?

**Pineapple** · 12-07-2004, 02:48 PM

The last photo is a cut open oil filter. It had a magnet on it and you see how much steel it trap. It still doesn't save the engine.

Let me know if you want one. I still got a lot from last group buy.

**FlyCanadianGuy** · 12-07-2004, 07:14 PM

The real question is WHY did this happen??

**Sergio** · 12-07-2004, 07:21 PM

So was I right then?

Gonna swap in another engine & tranny this week. I'll take that thing apart and see if I could find out why.
