Reply to: Bent Prindle Gudgeon

[quote=njcatman]There is a lot of info on the web about bending aluminum castings, and temperature matters. Not too hot but not too cold. I would set it up with a clamp so that I can straighten it a little bit at a time. Rub the casting down with a bar of soap. Hit it with a torch, and when the soap is brown, clamp it down a bit. Don't do it all at once. I am not a metallurgist, and don't know how much you want to bend it, but I might do this over a few weeks. A little heat, a little bend, and then a few beers...repeat. Once you have it where you want, it should not spring back.[/quote]
