Worth doing big ends on td42 when turbocharging?

Post by morewheeldrive »

Hey guys, I'm about to strap a Huffer to my 300k old td42. Is it worth rolling in some new big ends while the sump is off? Anyone done this? I assume I can just undo the big end caps and roll some new slippers into the big ends?
Any help would be sweet. Cheers folks

nah its an N/A silver top, sweet. ive never heard of anyone needing to do it. just thought it might be worth it whilst the sump was off. but ill just strap her on and feel the powa!.
im running a VL turbo t3 turbo charger, a little bigger than what is suggested but we shall see how she goes.

Dont mean to confuse you after the last reply but I did mine. Only because there was a bit of wear. it didnt cost much from memory and it gives you a bit of piece of mind when your giving it a hard time down the track.
