Hi. Where do you live? save your $ up and bring or send it to someone who knows what they are doing like GIXERHPCool, the inside shows no cracks so I was planning on using it and replacing if needed

Hi lafave132. I am not saying you can not do it but...……… I am building a high HP Buas and I have worked on race motors for over 55 years but I have never worked so I am having Rick at Harries Machined Parts do mine as I have over $1500.00 in just parts.Hi.

Takin' them apart is the easy part...getting them back together and running is the trick...Hi lafave132.

uuuh how correct dear bee.Takin' them apart is the easy part...getting them back together and running is the trick...
Virginia Beach. Going into it I bought it because I was interested in engines. That's really the reason my buddy sold her to me. He didn't want to take it in and didn't want to open the engine, or life got in the way too longHi.

The undertaking you engaged in is not for the faint of heart...I've done my own wrenching for a pile of years and I can honestly say what you are doing it beyond my skills.Virginia Beach.

Ya know, all this was going over my head until I separated my head and block and saw the carbon on my valves... how long do piston rings last?jep
if i was at that very "late" point, means head and block off, i would do so too - the number of hours you invested to get here are so high that not doing the entire work would be "the top of mountain" nonsense than the job to pull head and block at around 30 00 miles without any faulty behavior of the motor.
new rings, valve seats regrinding until the sealing surfaces shine like new again, valve stem seals new and putting the valve clearances to their maximum acc. to manual at least.
Around 23k. How long do rings typically last?As for the rings, how many miles are on it?
Clutch tool is not needed to take apart, just an impact gun.
Way longer than 23k, Get yourself a the correct Hone and just deglaze the cylinder. And clean every thing completely. Dont remove the rings, just make sure you set the the rings according to the manual,Around 23k. How long do rings typically last?
I hope you turn the the thrust washers the correct way when you put the cases back together, in the pic above they are backwards!Couple updates with some pics... so I replaced that little clutch push rod oil seal. Put the suzuki bond around the case where the manual told me, then was buttoning her up and one of the upper crankcase bolts broke. In my frustration I decided eff if, I'll just fill that hole with jb weld. That decision kept me tossing and turning so I drilled that s**t out and am on my way to reopening the case. I'm thinking improper torque. The manual calls for the 10mm crankcase bolts to be torqued to 50 nm if I recall correctly. But I'm thinking these are the crankcase journal bolts that are to be torqued to 20nm....
Do y'all usually turn the engine upside down when you break apart? I kept it topside up and the only hard part was getting the friction plates back on when seating the cases. Also had to take off the piston heads to get the upper away from the bottom.
A couple 'spacers' between my clutch friction plates have a some burn marks. This ok or need replacement?
Also, I wear gloves now I guess
