no, he's a really good mechanist. no questions asked. He makes parts for the farm. anything to do with the diesel motors or implements. he's been in the business for over 40+ years. i couldn't tell you the specs. he told me but i forgot what they were. but he's precise as hell. he did over 100's of motors. sleeve to regular non sleeve motors. he knows his shit really well.
i bought the rotating assembly from summit.
Connecting Rod Material:Forged 5140 steel
Piston Material: Hypereutectic aluminum
Wrist Pin Style:Press-fit ---- now full floats
Crankshaft Material:Cast steel
sorry. the rods are forged.Last edited by bigdana12; 08-12-2013 at 07:52 PM.

BINOG HYPEREUTIC pistons are not forged and they will not take any added piston to wall go back to post #2 they do not grow like a 2618 . i done many bore jobs and i redone some were i had to bore the next size up from the shop down the road from me. they would tell you they have over 100 years of added machine time under there shop roof . well i stick with my 20+ years doing 100s of bores and getting paid to fix there screw upsLast edited by pat mccarthy; 08-12-2013 at 09:49 PM.

Have you had the machinist who did the work listen to the engine? If there's a noise in the engine then something isn't right! People reading to the description of a noise (we all describe things differently) can do little more then render an educated guess, someone knowledgeable about what's been done inside the engine right there listening to it could probably pin point the problem quickly.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
