Something Broke ( gonna make more powerful 220hp coming up)

i may have to contact Murdoch racing for correct size if we need, thanks
I used to use spirolocs on piston wrist pins, always ordered extra locs to have around. Once you install a couple becomes easier to install and remove. Always double count the number laid out for assembly and put the extras in the toolbox. I know someone who assembled 427 short block and came across a spiroloc on the stand. I knew all the pistons were correct, but still had to pull it back down to check. They were all correct but couldn't sleep if I didn't check., was an extra I didn't pick up.
 
You sir, suffer from the same OCD that I do. In cases like that it's not a bad thing. Everytime I didn't listen to my gut, I got burned.
 
Did you ever do the Robinsons service/gear? I did their billet 4th gear when I did the circlip upgrade out of an abundance of caution.... now I'm glad that I did!
I sent this to murdoch racing for back cutting, and spirolocs, murdoch does this instead of cutting for bigger circlips. I had the billet 4th from robison and didn’t install, i am now

That is really disappointing Kevin.
However, your skills attained, practice and perseverance at teardown and rebuild is really impressive!
Bugger, I'm feeling just a little bit guilty for buying your last Robinson's modded and assembled one with the billet 4th from you a few years ago now when you changed tack on the trans rebuild. .
It is still in my chest of parts for my long delayed build.
