Nice! What about making new adjuster blocks too? The stock ones are neither lightweight nor shiny ;-)
That'd be a stainless job.Nice! What about making new adjuster blocks too? The stock ones are neither lightweight nor shiny ;-)
Just asking, they do look good.There is stretch in all materials, steel, aluminium, stainless , whatever, but not enough to affect anything.
As in dimensions or as in finsh?Abandoned project, can't get the inside of the slot up to scratch.
That's probably why all the motorcycle engines fall to bits, aluminium in the engines compresses, the bolts get loose and the engine falls apart. It all makes sense now!I vaguely remember a professor saying aluminum slowly compresses so won't hold torque
I guess you have higher standards than me... I'd happily settle for a machined finish, or just a little flat file work for a part like that.Finish...
Haha. Dunno. Might have to do with the shape. He was talking about aluminum wiring that loses compression at the screw terminals over time and starts a fire.That's probably why all the motorcycle engines fall to bits, aluminium in the engines compresses, the bolts get loose and the engine falls apart.

Well that explains why a half a dozen airplanes crash into my back yard every week.I vaguely remember a professor saying aluminum slowly compresses so won't hold torque
