yeah its been an adventure for sure, thank god for ebay.. thanks for the input.. i have acquired a handful of dirtbike tools now too.. all new engine/transmission seals, bearings, gaskets, used transmission, was a horrible project lol, idk if they sunk it in a river or lake or what and let it sit for some years but i got for next to nothing and have 600 in it i figure a few more hundred and it will be done (including shop service for rebuilding/balancing/trueing crank) things i have no equipment or desire to do.. they sure beat it up, but im sure gonna fix it n do the same
see the ¾" thick crap in the bottom of the case lol
the piston is a wiseco, was ok, measured clearances, checked out so i cleaned it up, had to torch the rings off no biggy..
pretty much building from the ground up.. :/
