Chris Wilson Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I am very interested in these Titan billet main caps. I have heard of issues with these, it may be down to lack of engineering expertise getting them line bored, it may be almost anything. I'd welcome pictures of them, and even though it's sod all to do with me, the reason you feel you need them. *iss off cheerfully accepted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went on a couple of peoples advice, and one particular tuner basically said what you've said. There are known issues with them, but thats supposedly been down to bad engineering. There is no other reason they'd fail other than poor machining and installation. They're very 'chunky' compared to stock, no imperfections in the machine work, and generally look and feel up to the job. 650g each, so quite heavy really! Pictures are a bit shabby but you're welcome to some high res when I can be bothered to get my camera out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Unless you have a 110% trustworthy and experienced engineering shop able to take the line boring on you could easily end up with a scrap block, or a block with insufficient, or too much main bearing shell crush. If you have any doubts, trust me, stick with the stock set of caps that came with the stock block. You almost certainly don't need or want these caps! I will happily build the engine for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The line bore has to be *perfect* or you will kill something. Regards, Gaz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aha so it wasn't just the rear oil seal going, in fact that was all that was left holding the crank in? Nasty! -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
