[T3] My Berg Motor

["Park, Keith J (CRD)" <parkkj@crd.ge.com>]

Well, I finally got time and bench space to start the berg motor assembly and low and behold it
crashed and burned!!

I ring was out of spec, there sending me another one, not a problem and I was happy that I got them
all off and on without breaking any by hand but Im still concerned that the side clearence is smaller
than the .002 spec.  I also have a chrome top ring and Ive heard bad things about chrome rings.

The show stopper was the fact that while inspecting the cylinder heads I found no mount for the FI
sensor.  10 years ago ALL heads were going the universal route with BOTH the sensor locations as
after 68 T3 and After 75 all of them were FI.  Something happened and now there not anymore, this
cought me off guard and Berg is trying to find a sensored head but he says there scarce.

Anyone have a source??

Anyway this means sending them back causing a 2-3 week wait, by then my hole in the schedule will be
almost gone so  looks like Im not gonna get past the lower end assembly this winter.  Maybe in the
spring?? Swear Building these things was easier 10 years ago and staying on the light side. It will
be 2 years this spring Ive been waiting to get everything togeather

Sigh!  at least the Square is set.
