Hey mike , I’ve probably watched this evo build a hundred times.. I was wondering if one day you could do an in depth video of crank end play.. something that I believe is overlooked so many times in build videos and it is so very important.. aloha from Hilo Hawaii 🤙🏽
@pacificmike95013 жыл бұрын
Crank endplay is something you always check, but on this "late model" stuff it's pretty much already handled by the "Timken" set on the left side. Most of us buy those bearings as a "matched" set. That's two bearings, two races, an inner shim and an outer shim. This sets it. You check it and your good to go. The bearing on the right side doesn't need the endplay set because the left side is controlling it. Realize this setup is used from 1955-2002. Aloha.

@pacificmike95013 жыл бұрын
That's very cool. However, lapping the cases is done with the motor diassembled. Once the cases are split, main bearings should be replaced and refitted. Reusing the left side is often done, although I normally replace them if I've gone that far, and the right side race is normally lapped and new bearings fitted. I'm not saying skipping it can't be done, but I can't recommend it.

Its temperature range is from -60 to 300f, which fits well with engine operating temperatures. On a half inch bolt, its yield strength is 80 in/lb, which my five year old could break loose without heat. I even use it on brass screws like the carb adjustment.

No doubt about it. Evo motors are great. They last a long time and work well. Shovelheads run like only a Shovelhead can. They sound, feel, and smell like Shovelheads. Awesome! Now, Panheads are from another time and were designed to run on those new "cross-country" Highways. They just run down the road so smooth for days and nights on end. Great sound and feel. But sometimes, one needs a real thrill. Not necessarily for practical purposes. Maybe to relive the past, maybe because they feel like they're flying, maybe, one craves that magical sound. I don't think anything else supplies the kind of rush that comes from a "Hot Rod Knuckle."

This one requires some expertise. When these were originally cast, things were machined in order. The cases were machined for their parting line, bolted together, then the deck surfaces for the cylinders were machined. The surfaces that are required to work together must be correct. A lot of cases look like they don't match., main bearings, deck surfaces, cam bearing to cam cover, they all have to match up. Other than that, cases will vary because they are cast. All those things must be correct. Someone who is a real motor builder can usually correct all of that.

If you friend ruined 2 motors what's stopping him from ruining this one? I'm cringing knowing that will be the outcome 🙁

He's a great old wrench who was trying to function under stressful conditions. He'll be fine.

Mike, wouldn't it be a good idea to press camshaft needle bearing into right hand case before assembling cases.
@pacificmike95014 жыл бұрын
Not a bad idea. Shouldn't really matter. We'll put the cam bearing in next.

Not crazy about using the q-tip. You can see strands of fuzz sticking to the case

I know that. Common usage however, is quite different. Although you are most certainly correct, send a letter to Harley Davidson, commonly referred to as "The Motor Company." Or maybe, "Ford Motor Company" would like to comment. Oh yes, the turn of the last century spoke of "motorcars." "Correct" and "common usage" are certainly different. But, thank you.

Don't they make a gasket for that?

No. That's why you "lap" the case halves together. A perfect fit with the proper sealant does not leak.

I'm assuming you're speaking of "wet sumping." Ride the bike more. The oil is probably getting past the check ball in the oil pump. Gimme more to go on.
