Hi guys , both engines stripped , not looking so good .
First off the sump on one has had a botch job , obv the drain plug has snapped so it has been covered in some kind of metal filler , I’m goin to try chip & grind away at it to see if I can salvage it and get to the thread, but it’s fustration not to mention man hours
Secondly this spline is the only one on both engines that does not want to come out , any tips , other than heat
Then we get to the interesting part on the better engine the case has damage to the seal housing on the drive gear shaft
Any experience will the seal hold or is the casing toast
One good crank looks like not done any miles since inserted , who ever built this engine needs to stick to air fix kits , woodruff keys missing , circlips missing & shaft retaing screws totally snapped off at heads not to mention toothpaste for case sealant , well might as well have been
One toasted crank , bearings shot
One head and barrel with a new piston 200 over bore
Heavily ported , very heavily , I don’t know if it’s a hack job or done correct , had boysen Reeds in and was running a huge mikuni carb on the bike when purchased although it’s never ran obv from what I’ve described. It’s been stood since roughly 2009
Second head and barrel look stock but no piston and in bad shape
This is from the engine with busted crank and sump butcher
So yeah / not 2 impressed
Thoughts and feedback most welcome
Thanks in advance mic
