Another HUUUUUUUUUUUGE thanks is due to you mate as you were right
i had put the grooved shells in the rods
Went back into the garage last night after my last post on here and pulled it all appart again and then re-built it with brain switched on lol
Cheers mate you saved my engine

are we talking about the same thing buddy, i was on about the grooved bearings going in the
