Title: scat engine case Post by: jr59 on October 08, 2009, 11:43:52 am well who can give me more info to me.
It's time for us to go with bigger cc engine so thinking of this case to make the work! I know that a aloy case from CB or othe can easely handle the job but I like this case so... ;D ;D I sent a mail to Scat with no answer so I even don't know if I can find one new! The MAIN info I need is about how does it come out of the box (bearing line good or wrong(like so many now),oil gallery ... I can imagine the normal work to do on case but I don't want to waste time buying totaly unuseable parts!(I already had bad surprise with hi po parts from brand name !!) hope getting info ;) ;) cheer JR Title: Re: scat engine case Post by: Udo on October 08, 2009, 11:55:14 am I think you will never find a case that is ok in the main bearing line . Most work like they are , but no one has the correct diameter and is straigth . I had one alumium case that must get bored for 1. oversize on the shoulder bearing, it was too big .
I had one autolines case fro a customer that was ok... Udo Title: Re: scat engine case Post by: Neil Davies on October 08, 2009, 12:47:09 pm JR, Bernard Newbury uses Scat cased motors. I know Jack Sachette builds the engines for Bernie, so it might be worth e-mailing Jack. ;)

udo yes we actually have same problem in our facility !! But in this world I have 2 really good one ;D ;D: my old BERG one purchased in 1995 and the one we use now comming from mike lawless wich is a CB panzer case .thinking it was really cheked before any use... About athe scat one,it would be a shame to buy such part and line bore it before any work on it >:( >:(..but I think it will be the thing to do cheer JR Title: Re: scat engine case Post by: Udo on October 08, 2009, 20:07:34 pm Most you can use the case as it is , some minor difference in boring is ok . I messure all new cases and give the bad ones back . Or i pull of the 8 mm pins , make it straight , install oversize pins and shuffle pin the case . a lot of work but it is worth the work
