Default Re: Crankshaft Alignment to Block

Robert,
I suspect that you have a bad align bore job.
In your first post, you said that when the dial indicator base was on the crankshaft flange and the indicator swept the machined surface at the rear of the block 180 degrees, the run out was .010 in. This is an indication that your crankshaft is not parallel to the camshaft. Remove the crank and cam shafts and measure the distance between crank and cam bearings at the front and rear of the cylinder block.
This problem cannot be fixed by shimming the flywheel housing.
