its the bearings, swapped out to the old rocket fuel then pump gas, and the HP / TQ stayed relatively the same. so the bearings in my case were key!
side note, I am lucky enough to work very close to World Wide Bearings, so I stopped by and seen Dave today, got the nickel tour. shot the shit, did a little bench racing. after all questions were answered and the new plan was made, Dave took me back in the shop for the test! now if your lucky enough to stop by you to can also participate in the test.
see, Dave sometimes ends up with a few extra, small ceramic bearing balls. so he double bags them for retention purposes and gives you a hammer and steel block....yup you guessed it, you whack the bearings with the hammer as many times as you want. as of yet not one has broken one ever. and let me tell you I was determined! I always believed they were brittle, nope, I beat those bearings into that steel block without even marring one. so there another test for you.
