Mr. Synchro, I don't think so. I have already told you more then I know!!!!!

But, a book would be to big, and a video, way to long.

The problem being, if I rebabbitted any kind of say, rod bearings. There are many thing that could go wrong. You would have to show all of them, to show someone else, and if what could happen didn't, you would still have to try to make it happen, to show how to fix it, and what it looks like.

One of the problems in pouring, every set of different makes of rods pour differently, they have there own set of problems. A heavy rod pours different then a light one. The Temps., are NOT, all the same by far.

Inserts in mains are alright to pour, but inserts in rods should not, because the rod inserts have to be 100% up to the backing of the inside of the rod. If not, they will NOT last. We pour solid, and that takes care of that problem.

One of my favorite saying, I have gotten is when someone asks for a price, and then they say, " Why so much, all you do is pour it in there don't you " LOL

Thanks,

Herm.
