CAM in da case





Putting the Engle FK10 in the engine case with the 80mm Oettinger crank and the 5,5" Eagle rods was not as easy as i suggest. Also the cam bearings and my case aren`t close friends in the beginning.

The oil return channel is shut regarding the bearing. I signed the area and use a small file to open it that the oil will find the way back to the sump.

Also the rod from number 1 had not enough clearance to the bearing surface of the middle bearing.


After some minutes @ Günters lathe its much better.






Now clearance is not longer a problem the nex step will follow, the cam timing.
