Engine Case Transfer Port casting marks?
Posted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 7:05 pm
I noticed on the bottom of my GT500 transfer ports that there is a semi round 2-3mm deep rough indentation at the bottom of the transfer port in the engine case. Is this on every GT/T500 engine case? It almost looks like it would have been a rough part of the engine casting process left over during the manufactiring process. I was thinking it might make sense to either fill it with epoxy or maybe just smooth it out with emery cloth to ensure smooth air flow. Just curious if anyone else has seen this type of thing on their engine case.
