End float being out of whack will not effect side pressure on the damn rotors... Please remove head from *** at this time. thank you.
The rotors are slid over the e-shaft in installation. There is nothing on the e-shaft which will pull the rotor into the housing. The e-shaft will, however, collide with the rear stationary gear if the end play is excessive. I'm fresh out of "not installed" engines so I can't pull a front pulley and measure how far back the e-shaft needs to travel to collide. It's also possible that the e-shaft would hit the intermediate housing. Forward motion as stated before would not cause any harm as it would be pressing against the internal thrust bearings at that point.
