I would try it as is.
I was thinking of machining out a 12cm housing too but was told it wouldn't make too much difference, IIRC.
Are you sure its a 60mm? I didn't think they came 8 blade 60mm?
That's why I bought one, my new GEP engine build has to last another 10 years at least and another 250K.
Just thought I'd post this in case anyone wanted to buy the remaining few and figured it wouldn't fit DB2's with modifying or buying new parts.
I called DSG the other way, talked a man who knew all about them and told me why they stopped making them. As most of us know, Pete Jackson made the first batch's, then after he went under, DSG found another company to make them, then one day, the owner said F*ck it, I am retiring and that was...
No one is hesitant, but if you want to fix it, go for it. As I said and others, we hear this time and time again but people either start and run or spend money and energy and build a worse mousetrap. Like I said, if you do it and fix it, you'll make a killing and you'd be a hero. :cool:

Ford aka International's setup is simplicity at its best, one crank gear mesh's with a cam gear, that's it and why the cam turns backwards. We have a timing chain as you know and to run a gear set, we need one with an idler. If billets were affordable, I'd have a cam made for our engines and do...
VW's have either good maintenance or none, but if they say don't service an auto, do the exact opposite. If its been serviced, no need to flush it. I have a 2000 Jetta TDI, bought it with 350,000 Km's on it, flared 2-3, dropped out of OD, would delay into D or R, its the dreaded 01M trans. I...
Try KR services aka Badger diesel on a pump as well, very respectable outfit. I'll find the post on the DP. A shop is selling remans for around $500 and they are good remans, not resealed pumps.
Do you have a leak down tester?
N/A injectors won't hurt spool and IIRC, the n/a nozzles depending on part number, can put out slightly more fuel.
I could be wrong but I don't think an IP can put out one bad signal per say because its a rotary design.
