    And the Sun bitching and moaning. This from the group of buzzards that had a hand in killing Lady Di. Maybe it is about time the press got it back into their heads that they are there to Report the news NOT make it.

    More Flat Plane Crank Stuff

    When it sounds like a Rotary, that will be the Pitlane speed limiter engaged, this often operates by killing any number of sparks to keep the revs at the preset. I think it is a cross plane crank but due to the exhaust system it is harder to tell these days.

    Anyone know anything about machining threads?

    as a rough guide I work on for metric threads is to take the pitch away from the OD to give a tapping size. The thread angle is 60<sup>o</sup>. The thread depth is 0.614 x pitch so for a 1mm pitch thread you are looking at a depth of thread of aproximatly 0.024"

    Anyone know anything about machining threads?

    The great thing about threads is you can make them any size you want if you are making both parts. On a thin wall part I would probably use a UN form at 24TPI. Standard form carbide tips are available for both internal and external on this form. I am guessing you are making both the male and...

    One thing you need to be careful of when using any system like this is that at full extension of the ram and full droop you are not binding your Ball Joints. Also with the suspension at full droop and the hydraulics fully retracted that the springs are still tight on their seats. Also if using...

    Ds2500 pads?

    My observations on pads from personal experience are, DS2500, a little wooden in feel at high temps, have not had them fade at all. reasonable on the discs, OK cold but needs higher pedal pressure, Not the best un-boosted. Will not buy again. DS3000, as above for feel and no fade. Very harsh...

    shocks HELP!

    The 6207 C2 bearing has a nominal internal clearance of less than normal. 1-11 micron. The normal 6207 has 6-20 micron and the C3 has 15-33 micron. If this has been designed to operate with a C2 then the closest fit would be a standard 6207. As you can see there is a cross over point where you...

    I would suggest that this is showing the result of the crank being balanced. I think what you seeing is what is called the residual imbalance. As it is near on impossible to get as perfect balance and balancing is normally done to a standard there is normally some residual imbalance left. The...
