Re: 26 Tmotor
The thrust surface is very uneven, i did use a pry bar to try and move the crank rearward, and i can't detect any movement. however you can fit .002 feeler guage into one small area in the middle of the thrust surface but the majority of the thrust has no clearance at all tight.
As far as the cam bearings go i had asked him if he replaced the cam bearings and he said he only replaced the rear as the others were in spec, but for some reason you can grab the timing gear and move the cam around so much that you can see daylight between the outer bearing surface and the block casting. and i'm wondering if this was done on purpose to allow the cam gear to move uppward to compensate for a bad line bore job.
