I had several issues on a recent
motor ((
Internal Combustion Engine ? )) rebuild involving 2 non matching case halves. Non matching meaning 2 cases from 2 separate motors.Well documented in this thread:

Here are some pictures of the cases mated together.See how they are not matching well at all. Shelf hardening of matching cases and torquing of the cases together as a pair helps in mating the surfaces together.When you take a case and use it with another case, youre going to find this issue at times.I would recommend checking the dowels in the cases and lapping on a LEVEL table, believe me I did it wrong and it was a pain in the arse. Here is some pictures of 2 cases that do not mate well, both are from 2 different engines.
