What really? I've been trying to convey this for years now.

If you need very close dimensions then use a different process to finish the holes.

A fellow on youtube did a Toyota tear down of one of the problem engines. There was no sign of a debris related problem. That is why I doubt it for one. And two, what are the odd's that unrelated manufactures are all claiming that exact same problem. There is more than one thing that is the...

In my opinion, the main problem for failures is cutting corners, the excuse I have read and heard is oil gallery debris. It seems those manufactures are too proud to ask for help from independent folks, like back in the 50's and 60's when the big 3 would call on people like Smokey Yunick, to...

This is some very good information. This guy is on the mark. And proves how most all science is now stuck in a box.

I just plan of getting a Hex or round pin of said material about 1 foot long. So brass is the better choice?

And what did a hardness test say?

What ID number for either material to use? May need to make a fitting for small water supply PE pipe. I'm very familiar with 660 Bronze bearing material and know that would not be a good choice. Any advice is appreciated.

At first glance that almost looks like inclusions. So why use cast steel for a fastener? That part should be made from a solid bar not a casting.

I clicked everywhere and nothing would down load.

Yes you can, but its not new stuff and only 4 foot long is exposed it has no information on it. The question is. Is it a 1 inch ID?

I'm guessing it is poly since that seems the be what most rolled pipe is. It is 1.375 to 1.380 OD. So what would the ID be? I'd think an ID of 1.25 would leave a very thin wall.

It is to help bond black rolled poly pipe to stainless steel fitting. Any idea's what would work best? I'm thinking a urethane of some sort?

Please tell me the accurate source for the information, you all here have found? Oh yeah I know the science is settled.

This is the transmission section. So this post should be in the engine section.
