Crank Grind

#1 Post by xvivalve »

The manuals state that the minimum overgrind diameter on crank journals is 40 thou. Looking in my secret box of NOS vandervell and glacier bearings I find a set of mains with the correct part number at plus 60 thou! Thankfully my crank doesn't need anything, but I guess these shells at plus 60 would be a step too far?

Dunno. It would rev nicely with that much meat taken off the journals though... :D
