Conicelle Rocks Options

[awd4kicks]

I ordered all my misc. Mitsubishi parts and gaskets from Conicelle on Wednesday. This morning a recieved a FedEx box containing my order complete as requested!

BTW - Because I had to have the crank turned down .010 I am having to use Clevite bearings that I'm getting from Winner's Circle for about a quarter of the price of O.E.M. So after putting these bearings in correctly, I'll test them to their limits along with a turned down crank and we'll find out first hand if there's any truth to the Bearing and crank myth.

Depending on the process for the surface hardening, it probably only goes about 0.003 to 0.005 inches into the crank from the bearing surface, so taking a crank 10/10 will completely wipe out the surface hardening.

I bet that even a non-hardened crank will last just fine under 400hp as long as you're not running knock counts through the roof all of the time. So I'm sure you'll be fine

BTW, I've snapped a 20/20 Buick crank in half with less than stock horsepower due to a bad tune/questionable oil pressure.

Edit:
Just got done building the shortblock tonight, all the clearances look good. Installing those balance shaft elimnator block off bearings sure is a PITA though. The ACT Flywheel sure is pretty
