Default What have you broken when going to 36mm heads on you baja5b

im now running a 36mm ESP race ported cylinder head on my TS induction crankcase motor , mods on the motor are +2mm stuffed crank 813 modded pump carb , HRS zero drag seals , lightened flywheel , highresponse clutch kit , rear dom pipe, they reackon this engine is making 7HP . the engine has excellent power grunt galore lol ,

SO before installing this i had a feeling i would break a few things and i was right lol.. today took it out for a run and the motor came to a complete stop and turned off making a clunking noise, i pulled the starter and it was jammed up , i thought it was a ceased engine took it home and was nearly about to unbolt the head when i inspected the clutch , i took off the clutch bell and found a broken clutch shoe bolt , well i didnt have any spares so i just used a clutch plate bolt instead and its working fine ,

so after that was fixed took it out for another spin and was speeding it through the grass when i heard the engine full rev out and then my rear right wheel flew off LOL i had to run after my wheel lol , took it back home to fix it , i have the darksoul rear axle extenders and the bolt that goes through the extender snapped right off , anyway just drilled it out and re tapped it and put in a stainless screw with a nut so now its not gonna go nowhere hopefully , now waiting to see what else is gonna break down to this power engine .
