Got my engine back finally
2 Attachment(s)
I had a piston oil groove issue. The oil ring groove on the piston was too narrow according to Weisco who custom made them. They made me a new set, switched to a Comp solid roller and got it back in. No more oil fouling the plugs and a batman smoke screen :D . Engine runs excellent. Made 440 hp@ 5400, 475@6400 and 442@7400. Made great torque for a 355 ci - 458 lbs @4300.

I know you are happy
Now drive that thing down to Charlotte so I can have a look or better yet, a ride.

Did Wiseco take care of you, Jay?

Payton,
I plan on doing that in the near future. I need to get back up with Kyle and see about him installing my vintage air, so that would be a good time to check out your progress also. |
Yes they did Scott. I sent the pistons to them and they acknowledged it was too narrow by just a few thousands, which thats all it takes sometimes. It took about a month for them to check them and make me new ones.
I would have liked a little faster turn around, but I was very pleased they actually admitted it was their mistake and resolved my issue. Because of their customer service, I would buy again from them, because we all make mistakes. |
Great News Jay, another vote here for getting that thing on the road. BTW the DSE closeout and hinges look great! :thumbsup:
