WHENEVER YOU BUY STUFF FROM A CATALOG. YOUR BOUND TO GET BURNED EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE. SO I WAS BY THE LEG'S THE OTHER DAY AND CHRIS WAS TRYING TO FIT HIS CAM COVER. IT JUST WOULD 'NT GO ON. SO AFTER CHECKING WITH SOME PRECISION MEASURING EQUIPMENT. WE FOUND THAT THE BUSHING WAS ABOUT .002 TOO TIGHT. SO OFF IT WENT TO MY SHOP TO BE BORED IN MY MILLING MACHINE. THIS IS NOT A MATTER OF JUST REAMING OPEN THE HOLE WITH SOME KIND OF UNI-BIT FROM HOME DEPOT. AFTER INDICATING WHERE THE HOLE WAS THE BORING BAR WAS CENTERED AND WAS BORED UNTIL THE PLUG GAGE I TURNED IN THE LATHE WOULD SLIDE IN AFTER MEASURING WE HAD A GOOD FIT PLUS OIL CLEARENCE. THE LESSON IS THIS. DON'T TRUST WHAT YOU GET IN THE BOX!!
