It could likely be spliced if you knew what type thermocouple it is.. Brent says it doesn't work to splice the wire. You will need to buy the extension for the temperature gauge to work correctly. Billy

Didn't work for me and didn't work for at least one other member here. Mine would have moments where it showed a signal, but most of the time it did not. This was with a Vapor, not the TTO, and I beleive the other member had a Vapor as well. I used thin wires and soldered them in and such. Elsewhere I see everyone says any old wire will work. Your call. Extensions aren't as expensive as the sensor or gauge that would potentially mess up.

If its a type K or type J thermocouple,it'll need special wire as the wire itself is what generates the signal at the probe..Its usually red and white for J or red and yellow for K type...

Didn't end up doing much to the cylinder..

I've also decided to do my own gaskets..and even the official port timing wheel.

I beat the crank into submission...I ordered a new one...next update in a couple weeks..

What happened to the crank? Knocked out of true?

Yeah.. I got these cases partially together twice then had to get them apart again. First time I ever had a problem with it. I could seat one side or the other, but not both.

As long as you haven't messed up a thread or spline it can be trued. Might consider polishing the next one for a slip fit in the bearings to make the install easier

If you aren't using them already, make a set of "dummy bearings" so you can mock up the crank and cases and be sure everything works smoothly before you do final assembly. Take enough material off of the OD so they will fit into the case kinda snug but with no pressing and onto the crank kinda snug but no pressing.

I have a set of old bearings I use for dummy bearings. I installed the bearings on the crank first. got short half installed on the crank couldn't get the long half to slide on. Got the long half installed couldn't get the short half on.

I polished the 43.5 Hoca crank journals I just put in my 90 build. Used hot and cold to put a bearing in each case half, then slid the crank in. I gotta say it was easier to deal with. Will be interesting to see how easily it comes apart if I need to split the cases.

That sux Sitticuss. I had mine get stuck for a moment twice during install. A little panicking and quick action with the freeze spray saved my butt.
