Hey ya all,

I agree, Yes this has been a VERY good discussion, I am learning a lot. This is what my LHS is missing, people with experience and know-how.

Thank you all for sharing what you know. Wish me good luck with this engine, my parts have arrived, I am replacing the sleeve, piston, con-rod, crankase and crankcase bearings.
I will need advice on breaking-in this rebuilt engine but that would be another topic to discuss.

Thanks!
