Default JXD crankshaft shims.

Darryl. You are doing a fabulous job on the M 8. When did the crankshaft in my WSC I found that bolting up all the main bearing caps the crankshaft would not turn. After a lot of recearch I was conviced that the crankshaft tunnel was out. I had the tunnel line bored to a size that did not need the shims, I also had the conrods given the same treatment. It then went together very nicley.
