Re: Drop the freaking wrench already!
Wow, seems like a real garage mechanic to me. I bet they didnt use a torque wrench at all, just "eh fuck it, snug um up reely good'n it'll be yall rite".
And Mike, about what you were saying about staggering the rings, have you noticed them being un-staggered when pulling motors apart. From what I have seen, it seems like after break in, the rings would stay pretty close to the part of the cylinder wall that they broke in on in the first place. I know that now machining tolerances are very close, but you would think that the rings would wear in to a point and kind of lock themselves where they are? I dunno, just an observation.
