Typically our kits will install the same as OEM parts with the same torque specs. Depending on the kit you purchase there may be extra work required to make a kit fit properly. The main thing to remember is DO NOT FORCE ANYTHING. If it does not fit then stop and call us. We are modifying the engine and making it bigger. This means we are filling up the gaps in the engine with bigger parts. Sometimes the case castings vary and it is necessary to clearance them a bit for proper fit. Sometimes parts flat out need to be modified. Here are some rule of thumb measurements to help you out. Keep a minimum of .005″ for static parts (piston skirts to cases), a .030″ gap between rotating parts(rod to case), and a gap of .025″ for reciprocating parts(piston to case). If you have questions call us.
