Maybe I missed it being mentioned, but if the stroke increase is 1/4" (.250") then the journal only has to get 1/8" (.125") smaller (not including whatever needed to be ground off for 'cleanup'). Since at that point you are adding 1/8" to the TDC dimmension and the BDC dimmenstion as well (1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4).


My, what a steep learning curve. Erik II#5155
