[QUOTE="998cc, post: 118640, member: 125"] Martyn, That's good information. I sent my rods to Maughan's in the the 1980's; they fitted one of their crankpins, and it is still running today. Tony was very helpful over the phone. Hopefully, the seats can be lapped in as I have no seat cutting tools. My guide reamer was specially sharpened on the shank end of the flutes; the shank diameter is .3105" which fits well through the upper guide. This allows the reamer to be drawn in reverse through the lower guide in line with the upper guide. Installing the guides today. :) Thank you. Regards, Russ [/QUOTE]
