Piston squirters install Australia
I have exhausted all avenues here by phoning around. In the hope some Australians use this forum for info. For my upcoming engine build I'm after a shop that can perform this work. Im presuming my 67s engine does not have squirters. I don't really want to send it to the US its costly and all I hear is horror stories about wait times let alone transit damage etc. I'm also after the by pass mod but this seems simple enough. I'm just not prepared to let a shop use my case for a first time run.
Thanks Lyndon |

Hi Lyndon, Have you asked auto haus Hamilton? They build a few engines, perhaps they have a source.

Ok good news. I at last have an answer. Spoke to Grant at Auto Haus. He has been down this path and he now sends all his cases to Ollies.
So I will make arrangements when the time comes. Thanks Lyndon |

Surely someone in Australia can do this, I did it myself with the help of a machinist mate and his mill, it's not that complicated.
Have you given Kane at Zuffenhaus a call? I'm pretty sure he can help you out. He's in Preston. andy |

Geez, you guys are keen! Sending stuff to the US is a massive time and $$ commitment.
So glad that I was able to avoid shipping stuff off! |

I have not needed any case work to be done by a machine shop yet, but I removed my squirters myself and got a look behind them, it is a relatively simple arrangement which I imagine any good quality machine should be able to execute.

Crankshaft rebuilders in Preston. I have rang and they are confident. Apparently they have done them before.
Thanks Lyndon |

Give Richard den Brinker at PR Technology a call - I'd be amazed if he couldn't do this.

little squirt
hi lyndon,if your engine doesnt have pisto squirt holes i think thats a lot of work not only do the rods need to be drilled but i think cranckshaft has to be machined so so all oil holes line up and oil arrives at the thrust side of cylinder good luck .
