Checked today, fuel guage shows full still, zero leaks or smell from the tank. Started right up and pump sounds much quieter. So far, so good
I got brand new H beam rods for my stroker 340 that were at the high end of the spec and even .0001" over spec. You have to have good bearing crush so you don't spin a bearing, so I reconditioned my brand new rods - it was easier than returning them. Still, I was peeved, but it reinforced the idea that all specs need to be checked to make sure they are good, even on new parts.First of the parts arrived for the stroker. I got the rods and crank today from 440 source. Rods look great. I'll post pics of the crank when I open it up. View attachment 1974063
