Well I built my 318 turbo Magnum from the oil pan up but I noticed an issue the other day. I have a trigger wheel installed on my balancer and when I give it a little rev, the balancer and bolt all move foreward about .020" to .035"
I noticed this first when I was putting on the custom 36-1 trigger wheel. But the bolt wasn't torqued just yet. I torqued the bolt and it didn't happen anymore. I've had a lot of issues with this wheel setup and have had it on and off many many times and finally got it right and bolt torqued. But I don't recall if it was ever ran hard with the bolt only snugged down, not torqued. The thrusting hasn't affected the crank sensor...yet. I always put that crowbar on and thrust the crank when torquing that main cap. Any ideas??
Thanks fellas
