Hi:
With so many that have done the Moss conversion kit for the rear main oil seal, I was hoping someone can comment on the metal debris as a result of drilling and tapping.
In my case the main bearing cap and the rear of the engine block were perfectly aligned, not requiring me to remove the oil sump and undo the rear main bearing cap nuts to adjust.
I am happy about that, but in the instructions, there was made mention the the cavities of the rear main bearing cap would have to have metal debris removed as a result of the drilling. I cannot feel any cavities as a result of the drilling to the depth of 10 - 12 mm that I have done.
Am I missing something, or would I be wise to drain and remove the sump for an inspection anyway. Any comments would be appreciated.
