37 views and nobody can say anything, dang, well it is getting tested against my bone stock 372 sometime this week, it seems to be alittle faster by my initial timing though, but my 372 was a nearly new 2000 model and I have ran a few tanks through the old gal since I did that first set of times, and I got a good chain on it. Someonesay something!
I'll quote myself here, "And the air hung green with envy," :jester:
Nice mate, now get ta work! *pat pat pat pat*
Edit hint> Bad torx (I really hate them I do) If you have a dremel or such with a small (1/32 I believe or a tad more), grab some of the small bits from a dentist and use them to cut a slot big enough for your best screwdriver, DO NOT cut down to the bottom of the head or to the stem! (experience here, not good)
Used hacking saws a few times if you can get at it to cut slots, theres several nice (cheap) blade holders that make this way easy. hm, even sharpened a Philips bit and hamered it in (worked) but
not on a machine!
Sometimes in desperation I have tried to hammer in a torx bit so it'll sort of seat, please don't do this, never worked for me, but ya never know
.
Easy Out will work, though with my paws working on small diameter bolts requires a decent drillpress to get a centered hole started then I figure might as well just drill it out and line up the threads with a tap set. Dunno, not a machinist but, have tackled a few 'impossible' nuts and bolts. (a center punch works too but not if you are free-handing). Snapping off big ones is a fun and interesting experience *scratch*. An unfortunate aspect of doing power things on nuts and bolts on smaller things is you don't want to screw up any surrounding materials, especially plastics of any sort.
this prob won't help ya, guess I was lonely
