The importance of measuring bell housing runout.

I struggled with this setting up my TKX.

Most of us don't have a snap on magnetic base and dial indicator. I used Harbor Freight since it's something I use every once in a blue moon. Wound up having to remove one of the flywheel bolts to get the magnetic base to stick. Probably rotated the engine around 30 times until I finally got the reading to stay consistent from rotation to rotation.

Bought the offset dowels, installed them the way the video says to install them and it actually made the run out worse. Wound up just guessing and turning them 90* off of where I expected them to be pointing and tested a handful of times and got consistent readings within spec.

I don't think you have to do anything other than write down what your runout is and send it to SST in order to stay in warranty. Maybe my memory isn't serving me correct but I feel like anyone could just lie and write down whatever they wanted. Probably not smart unless you want to up your chances of having issues down the road.
