Has anyone seen the need to add extra support to the center main on the TR wet
sleeve engine? We have an engine that has a steel bridge cross-bolted
underneath and supporting the center main cap. Is this needed? Just took 3
factory cranks to the machine shop and all three were bent about .002 in (.002
run out at center main when supported on first and last mains.) Two of these
were raced, the third was removed from a tired street engine. note: None of
these cranks came out of the engine with extra support at the center.
Curious as to the need for the extra support.
Thanks,
Phil Gott
