Hey Guys,
I tore into my shee this weekend cause the compression was low in one cylinder. Low and behold, I found that a ring broke and played havoc on my piston and cylinder head. To boot, the rod has a lot of side to side play (like 1/8"+) on the crank. I think the crack in the intake from the boost bottle caused a lean condition in the right cylinder....damn boost bottles.
So, I need to bore my cylinders and get new pistons and rings, and I am looking into fixing my crank. Recently I have heard of problems with Hot Rods cranks coming apart. I also know that Tony Doukas racing offers rebuilt cranks for about $350. What is better to go: rebuilt or hot rods crank?
Also, anyone know a good machine shop in the south bay area???
Thanks!
