Default RE: dead engine?

So, I tore it down to an empty caseing. The piston rod was shredded. It looks like it got super hot, but I dont see any other signs of heat damage. The cylinder and Sleeve look good. No gouges or pitting. If these pictures will link up right you will see what it looks like. When I re-assemble the engine is there any timing or tuning that I have to worry about? Im sure there is, I just havent looked it up yet. I blew the casing out with compressed air, cleaned it all with alcohol, re-lubed the bearings, and have it all back together minus the piston/sleeve. Just waiting for the part now.................
