not realy dave,the big push starts tommorrow.
had customer cars to do last week.
i had lost a week due to no rod bearings available.needed +.001's.finally got some but now,but i need to turn them down to fit.lucky me.
so it's been slow.finally got my trigger wheel for the crank as well,so need to machine that to fit and make a bracket for that as well.
then its just battery mount ,wire and install,fingers crossed.
fitted all the unabtainium bolts today.wow what a difference in weight.
haven't got everthing as lightweight as i wanted,but close enough for now.
we have a big week ahead,but it should be ok.
down sharon.

For narrowing rod bearings,
I turn up a slug to about 2.004" diameter
with a shoulder.
Length about 2mm less than the width you need.
You leave it set in the lathe and hose clamp the shells tight
to turn them carefully.
Being a little less in width
gives you room to chamfer the edge to clear the radii of the crank.
I do mine at about 30 degrees.

i used a +.001 shell and a standard shell to get the clearance i needed.
it will do nicely
