[QUOTE="BruceH, post: 11413856, member: 106410"] I still have some pics from the first motor I built. Tore it down and sold the parts when I decided to go with an 11:1 motor and E85. Mains. BTW I used factory main bearings. [ATTACH=full]275377[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]275378[/ATTACH] Thrust washer/bearing. [ATTACH=full]275379[/ATTACH] Rod bearings. [ATTACH=full]275380[/ATTACH] Pistons. I had the piston to bore clearance set at .002" which was on the tight side. They still functioned fine but I think there is a little more rub markings than there should of been. They are just rubs, no grooves or anything that would catch a fingernail. BTW the piston material was 4032 low expansion aluminum, same as the Terminator and GT500 motors use.
