No I don't I'm going to give them a call and see if he's still got the information but I doubt it.
Figured out the problem on the bearing issue.. To lite of an oil that I was
using. I ran 5-quarts of conventional 10W30 with 2-quarts of 20-50.racing oil
Just not enough cushion for the bearings and I turn down the oil pressure
from 80-psi to 60-psi. going back to 80-psi on this motor and check clearances
when I get the assembly home.
The crank is now standard main- .010 on the rods and I will run a racing oil
from here on out. A lesson learned for me here. your never to old to learn.
I will try the E-85 again sometime later.
