i messed up my pilot bore. Mazda makes oversized bearings and seals to fit it so you dont need to buy a new e shaft

ouu thats not good. You must not have the mazda pilot bearing puller...

I would talk to Rob, he is the expert on this subject. I believe Pineapple pioneered this technique?

It's probably about .001-.002" tight but no question, I'd ask Rob.

I assume you have the e-shaft out and you're getting this done on a machine tool?
