Curious what lifters they use?

I was a manufacturer of the tubes. The plugs must be 1/2" x 18 with the insert tubes left in and the plugs flat on the ends to seal against the flat flange of the tube inserts.

I don't have any personal experience with the seats other than their standard offerings. I did attend their webinar and they interested me. That said they are not that expensive and if changing seats anyway why not? Pulling the heat out of these builds is important. The application is similar to con...

My day job is purchasing cnc machines and designing machine changes. I get it. A small Hermle would work, maybe a mazak or a much retrofatal. And 5 axis fadal. All verticals with a rotary trunion.

Another option is to buy a CNC mill. You can buy a very nice one for much less that $150K It has the advantage of being able to make a 3D shape rather than only a revolved shape. A CNC mill also has the advantage of versatility, if you design a part, it can be producing 24x7. Curious What machine w...

There is Zinc solder available if you look hard enough for the real OCD (me).

maybe a solid pilot might help ? https://goodson.com/collections/pilots anyone make a good carbide pilot for the neway cutters ? rgds sdo Yes, rottler But now you have a great pilot and a less than great cutter. With new guides and being saddled with Neways I would rough with stone first. I am not ...

My next logical question would ask what about morel and compcams lifters? Are they also considered in that same replacement bucket?

Are Topline Hylift equivalents contenders? I thought they were considered high quality?

How about a restored V12 Columbo Ferrari.

Mike, pm me. I know a former Boeing jig bore operator in Auburn that has a fully equipped shop and does some very high end work.

There were a few cvo first in about 2000. Very nice bikes.

Harley engines don't fire the cylinders in evenly spaced intervals. Due to the crankshaft design, it's not "front cylinder/rear cylinder/front cylinder/rear cylinder", it's more like "front cylinder/rear cylinder - pause - front cylinder/rear cylinder - pause". Does you software ...

The thundermax ECU neuters the efi and changes alpha n, the stock ecu, to speed density which eliminates all load based algorithms. Now 3d becomes 2d just like a carbed voes bike. Throttle position vs rpm.
