Oil squirters.

I need your opinions people.

This being a 7M turbo block it has them but I don't think I need them. 

The pistons are basically  7M turbo pistons with a different dome so they have the transfer holes that stock 7M pistons have. 

But I dunno? I'm going to be running the larger flowing turbo oil pump but the question is, 

Should I run the squirters or not?

Keen to hear your thoughts.

No steps forward,

10 steps back. 

Crank end float. Was having issues with the crank not having enough end float so I lapped a bit off the bearings and it didn't change. 

Problem. 

After a bunch of fucking around it appears that the center cap (which was from another engine, because the original center cap for this block was destroyed by the bent crank) which was line bored with the block did not have the thrust bearing faces machined at the same time. 

I can't get the cap to bolt down and have the thrust bearing faces line up top and bottom.

So I've taken the whole thing apart again and it'll have to go back to the machine shop to get fixed. 

Cool.
