Default RE: Evolution .36 reassembly question

,
I have not even run it yet. I accidentally messed up the crankshaft threads a little so I am just replacing the crankshaft. Never damaged threads like that before, this was a first. I did not think that I had tightened the prop nut all that much but when I backed it off the threads were damaged. I just ordered a new crankshaft and it should be here on Wednesday. It was really easy to disassemble so putting it back together should be a snap. I plan on flying the plane next weekend. Its for a review project here on RCU so I will let you know when I get it done.
