Heres a couple of pics of the main cap mounts in the case. Do they look ok to go again? sorry about pic quality, can take more if needed. Cheers.
Matt, Aircooled have the Bugpack Pro St and 044, only have Los Panchitos in 90.5 and bigger, although they do have PN:500-240
DP STD Bore 40X35.5 for a decent price, wonder if these would be ok?
Feel any ridges and bumps when you run your finger nail across the bearing seat surface?
Nah, feels better than dragging your nails across a blackboard......
Hard to be sure with the small pics but looks pretty good. Those heads, the 500-420 look ok, they do the Los-Panchito too and mention they are good for 1600 as I was mentioning. The step in your old heads should be machined to be equalised (made the same) then use copper head gaskets if required to get a safe deck height depending on chamber volume to get required compression ratio.

the bearing have been shuffling.
The chap who align-bored my 356 case finished the mains with a hone. When I asked why, he told me the fine finish is preferable for heat dissipation, and also the final hone finish is very accurate.

just vibrating around from the case not being rigid enough and unbalanced rotation mass, i think the correct term is fretting.
does your saddle matting surfaces have a funny pattern on them? like this?

Shit, that was no good. Will go and find the thread on how to do this
See if this works
Yeeehaaaa, will bang some more up
Heres more
Last one
Looks good to me to run Dave, as long as no ridge to be felt at the centre main location where that oil groove is up the back of the bearing. The other check is with the case torqued together, no gap is present at the cxentre main saddles, both with and without the bearings installed.
