200X cylinder on NON 200x bottom end
I'll put this in the new member section so new guys can chime in too.
I'm sure some of you seasoned vets already know this BUT, I just found out the hard way a few minutes ago.
I built a 200E engine with a 200X cylinder and head. Engine went together perfect. I just got the engine buckled down and went to put on my starter. Guess what, it don't work. The larger cooling fins prevent the starter from going in. Not by much. I hope I can carefully remove enough material to get it in there, otherwise, I will have to tear it down and the whole build is a waste.
I have an assortment of carbide burrs for my die grinder I can use. Hopefully I can do this without fackin' up the paint job.
*sigh*
Stupidity is painful.
