in need of technical assistance
to make a long story short I am restoring a Mk55H. The problem I have is that I believe the crank journals were cut down. The rods are 600-4's
but when I used the called for needle bearings there is way too much play.
The motor was at one time worked on by Dick O'dea racing however he is no longer with us. I need assistance if it is possible to figure out what are the
proper needle bearings I need to obtain to complete the rebuild of the powerhead. Am I using the wrong connecting rods?
O'Dea Has Not Left he Building
Dick O'Dea was still alive last month and I have not heard differently..
There are millions of crans around, in fact I threw one and a block away last spring...I'll keep an eye open for one..
