i just got my engine back from golen after i pretty bad mishap (not golens fault), and i had noticed that when i seperated the trans from the engine the pilot bearing had been pushed back in the bore in the end of the crank. the bore is deeper than the stock crank was. last time i just put a few tick marks in the bore to get the bearing sitting tight and flush with the end of the crank, but that dident seem to work. has anyone had this problem befor. i was thinking about putting a spacer behind it.

 

I'd give the guys at Golen a call and see what they say, they may have what
you need in order to correct the problem without having to rig something up.

 

has any one out there had this problem?

 

I've never heard of somthing like that. But yea I agree with the other, call up golen.

 

I've heard of one example where the pilot bushing was a loose fit in an Eagle crank. That could do it. Was the bushing nice and tight?
