BadAss SRT-Z - 2.4L / A568 - Update!!!

[Rampage16V]

I heard that case thing somewhere too and also thought wtf hardened Aluminum?

But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda

My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hun.

Yup they are the same. I'm using a 523 case in my R/T after machining the crank sensor hole.

I had to machine the case a lil thinner there, the CPS pad on the RT cars has an addtional machining step there to prep for it. I ended bolting the clutch/PP/flywheel together then sliding them onto the trans splines to mock up how deep the CPS needed to protrude into the case. While you're at it, make that hole oval so you can slide the CPSalong the axis of rotation of the flywheel. Then report back if that really will adjust base ignition timing on the TIII's

So is that bar bronze or bronze silicon?

[BadAssPerformance]

No Si...

you can do sidebends or situps, but please don't lose that butt

[BadAssPerformance]

Lol...

[22shelby]

No Si...

no its "ceeeeeeeee"

[BadAssPerformance]

LOL...

OK, Learned something tonight... the plastic slinger thingy is NOT the same part number from a A555/520 to a A568/523 because the 68/23 bearing is larger. See attached pic with the A525 (Green) A520/555 (Black) and A523/568 (Grey). Fleck, we need to update the KC article?

And... I just put the bearing in with the black one and yeah.. its trapped behind there but its loose Guess I'm just gonna cross fingers and hope for the best on this one

Also.. LOOK AT MY GOLD TEEF!

[glhs0426]

Dems some good lookin' teefes.

[BadAssPerformance]

Thanks... hope they work as well as they look, LOL!

[BadAssPerformance]

Oh... and think I'll have any problems if the plastic slinger is allowed to move a little behind that bearing?

I've not taken the slinger out of a case yet. How id the oil directed through it.

I'll be honest and say that I would be very nervous about that thing floating around since it is responsible for directing oil down the shaft.

[black86glhs]

Make sure the grooves are nice and smooth. I'm not sure how well they will hold up, but they do look fine.

[Reeves]

You can't press the bearing in deeper to hold the slinger in place?

I think if it can move around, then the *spout* will rub on the inside of the shaft?

It will I did this to my 95 Grand Cherokee V8 and now it pings a little

Nope. Mine wiggled a little too on one of them.

[BadAssPerformance]

how much is a little? ...not much holding this one steady

[Reaper1]

You can do different heat treatments to aluminum. Mostly it is for stress relief, but certain processes can increase the toughness of the material depending on the alloy being used.

[MiniMopar]

Hmm...it shouldn't wiggle that much. On the other hand, your case has been "modified" behind the slinger. If the bearing can be taken out without hurting it, it might be worth putting some kind of shim behind it. Otherwise I wouldn't worry about it unless you think it might rub on the shaft.
