*greg* Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 I tried to fit my scat rods last night only to find out that there is not enough clearence through the crank stroke cycle. Is this a common fault and anyone know how much to get the block machined ???Thanks in advance Quote
adam starlet87 Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 you have to get the block notched mate. Every1 who runs scat rods has to do this. a machine shop will know how to do this no problem. Quote
*greg* Posted February 22, 2010 Author Posted February 22, 2010 ah thats ok then worried i had wrong size etc. I have heard of this process but rang three machine shops near me and didnt have a clue what i was about ,idiots. Anyone know of anywhere in Derbsyhire who does this and a rough guide price ??? Quote
Danturbo4311 Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Get yourself a dye grinder & do it yourself its just a case of taking a bit off the bottom of the cylinders to allow the rods clearance, If your capable of building a bottom end your more than capable of notching the block, just makesure you clean it all up properly afterwards.
