[QUOTE="Cyborg, post: 154816, member: 3426"] The thing is, I don’t know what far enough over equates to for an old slow turning V twin. The majority of my experience is with Honda engines so Vincent motors have triggered a little paranoia. For the amount (and type) of use this engine will actually see, it likely doesn’t matter either way…. at least not to the current owner. The thing is…. most everything is new and I cashed in my left nut to pay for the fancy rods etc, so spending lots of time to make sure everything is as good as it can be. This isn’t the only thing I’m over thinking. Personally I think it should be as close as possible to being centred. Then I’m not prone to nocturnal visions of uneven bushing wear… the pin thinking it’s a piston which taps the circlip out of place which sets off the inevitable expensive sounding death rattle. Robert and David have become my unofficial therapists…. like this engine, it’s a work in progress. [/QUOTE]
