  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    8.5:1 compression, oil pressure was 25 psi at idle warmed up with 10w30 oil. No video unfortunately. There is a threaded blind hole on the lower left side near the bell housing and not sure what you mean by crankshaft drilled?.

    It does have provision for a pilot bearing if that is what you mean.
