 Re: Wristpin Bearing Upgrade?
Well I got a bushing and then decided not to change it as Duane talked like it was normal for the slop. Any way with the 36 tooth sprocket I will not need to wind it out like I have been doing. I'll wait and maybe do the bushing swap later I now have all the tools and jigs made to change it and the bushing I bought I'm taking back. I do have ideas on some cheap easy performace things now as well after seeing all the insides of this engine. By the way its all back together and running. I ran out of scrap gasket material and I bought some to do the crank case and it was $10.00. I was suppried at the price I almost was going to go to the gasket shop for more scrap but the round trip of 60 miles would cost that in gas.
The gasket for the crankcase is a booger to make and get right I made 4 patterns before I was happy with the results. It got the gasket right on the first try so the extra time was worth the trouble.
