[QUOTE="Bill Thomas, post: 146911, member: 485"] Funny , I have just bought a pair of Comet Cases, And one of the inner Main Bearings is very hard to slip out !, God knows what he's done ?, Also the big end is as tight as anything ?, Almost no side play, ie not free !, But the alignment is very good !, It's like one man did one job and another did the other part ?. Lots of strange things have been done to the cases, But I think I can get them to work. It will be interesting to get it all stripped out , But I am just polishing and making them look better for now and saving up for a BIG Piston and Liner. I have a barrel Hole in the cases of 100mm !, Looks like the liner will be 96mm at it's widest, Which will leave a space of 4 mm/ 2mm = 80 thou" each side !!, I know I will have to block off the cylinder feed, Any body think that is NOT good ?, I mean the "D"s have a 5 thou gap around the lower liner, ie not touching, So I thought it might be OK ?. Cheers Bill. [/QUOTE]
