hi all,

i posted a couple of weeks ago about boring out my 1960 super meteor engine, i have now stripped the top end and the measurements are well over the maximum. so a rebore is justified. however i have noticed that the conrods have a few thou lateral movement in them, i.e. side to side. there is no play vertically in the big ends just this side movement, is this right.

thanks ed
