so the block destorted simply by squeezing by hand?! enough for mic. to fall?
as a result that means that a supposedly strengthening component- fancy studs could cause seizures etc! insane but good to know; I bet if I said to only rebore my engine when loaded with such bracing etc I would be looked at like I was satan himself!
Absolutely fantastic video! Thank you so much for illustrating this effect. I had no idea that cylinder blocks could distort so much and this gives me a whole new perspective on a number of important issues, especially how rebuilds have to be done correctly!
@tvalley nah torque plates aren't new. That's normal for a performance shop. Great vid II.

I would never have guessed that the block would flex that much just with hand pressure!
