Subject:clearancing case for stroker crank Q
From:Damon Campbell
Date:Sun, 18 May 2003 13:08:34 -0700

Currently, i'm trying to get the case prepped, and my
main problem right now is clearancing the 2.1 case for
an 82mm CW crank.  I've stolen some of my fiance's
lipstick to see where it is hitting upon rotation, but
i don't have a very good feel for how much to grind
off?  Do i need to mock up the end play shims, etc?
Right now, it is hitting the #2 main bearing support
rib.

I know this isn't very common practice with wbxs, but
any input on how to best go about this would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
-Damon
