Copper is superior as re. dissipation of heat and it is used on some rods for this reason.. These copper ‘small ends’, in some applications, have been designed to operate without any bushing.
‘Rod ratio’ is very, very critical in determining torque to be available at a specific RPM range~ Are you conversant with the Hepworth-Granger formula?
(Worked for Freddie at one time)
Can you do Triumph 650 m.c. heads?
Nice work~ You are most generous in sharing your knowledge.

Thank you sir. This video has answered questions that have been bothering me for quite some time. It’s a whole lot easier to learn when you can hear the tone of someones voice, not just their typing.

Not lately. Did the bearing seize to the cam? What did the journals look like? Sounds like it’s time for some green Loctite.
