Hello site, Any one using VW power, and building their own motors? I'm looking for a better way to build-up the pulley side (of motor Case) thrust bearing area. I know about the machining part of it, is there a better bearing on the market. Is there a stronger setup? I'm open to all answers or suggestions. This is the weak area of VW power, great motor. Great plains cases and cranks are to costly (total cost: Over $700.00), they are great, a good friend has the cases, but can't afford the crank yet! So, I'm looking for another solution to this problem. Thanks in advance. Blue skies to all. Skip
