line bore in Sydney
Bizarre - January 21st, 2004 at 06:47 PM

:(

My motor has some end play problems and i need a line/aligne/whatever bore

Who is best in Sydney

Sorry - really dont feel like packing it up for Stan.
I have heard of a company called Tru-bore??

Anyone else heard of them???

mmmm makes me laugh you are asking :D

Where does V-Force get their machining done ?I thought Richard did the machining and building of motors :jesus


I would go to Stan, minimal work in packing for the security of knowing its done right :thumb I guess some peoples priorities are different.

I can take it up with me when I go up to Coffs in 2 weeks if that helps ? Then Stan can pack and return.

Let me know:P

Craig

ALL the motors Richard has built/supplied lately have either been new cases or the industrial std bore cases like what i have.

We are asking to see who every one uses.

Guess my build quality aint in his league :(

Dunno what i did but the bearing has/is moving .
Guess you get what you pay for.

You may guess that i am still trying to do it on the cheap but if i cant find a suitable person here in Sydney then i guess i will take it to Stan.

Dunno...... i guess i still prefer the face to face and point to the problem approach that is available in Sydney :(

Might just have to take you up on your offer :D

the offers there Barry:thumb

The cost is about $90 (I think) , I would call this cheap !
You could also have the face of the cases done as well, as not many other builders do this.

All for a better motor Barry !
How much has this problem now cost you ?

????? - a couple of six packs??

Dont understand??

We went to get rid of some end play and we found we couldnt.
Rich had a good motor there and i bought it.
Even had bellows and (damn - cant think - you know blades thingies)
I have thrown that in with my duals just so as i can pretend.

Anyway it is all stripped down and torqued back up again.

Wow - you might even have to come round and have a beer and a chat with Alex and Deiter to pick it up!!!

Man - that would be worth $90 alone!!!

Hmmm..... u2u me with some details as to how we can hook up

Will also give CBB a call Matt. (As long as it doesnt come back with Kads!!!)



TTFN

Maybe I could see Dak to.................:D:D
