Got everything back, in the process of piecing it together here and there until I get some actual time to myself tonight to finish it all up, On the base gasket for the cylinder, the gasket has a kind of silicone line on one of the sides, does that go up or down?

Got the cylinder bored today, everything looks like it should go together well. The bottom end should be done monday, so we should have a running blaster by monday night.

Alright, should be able to get the cylinder bored tomorrow, taking the bottom end to someone to do for me, I don't have a flywheel puller or anything, so I figured that would be easiest. Anything else I need to watch for? Ring gap? I just want this thing up and runnin with no problems, trying to...

Oh, and my piston kit also came with a large metal washer looking piece, is that the exhaust header gasket?

Thanks for the torque specs., thats going to save me alot of time looking them up. How about the gaskets for the top end? The base gasket, head gasket, and reed valve gasket...should I use any type of silicone on those? Or clean the area and put them on?

Sounds easy enough, Just have to look at the torque specs in that manual for the head and cylinder, anybody know them off hand?

As I stated above, it is the stock bore. How about piston to cylinder clearance? Also, how about ring gap? When installing the rings on the piston, how should I stagger the rings so that the gaps do not line up? Do they need to be in a certain position, or just put them on making sure that the...

I got the entire crank assembly and also purchased the main bearings and seals...I think going to have someone do the bottom end for me, I'm pretty sure I can handle the top end, are there any measurements that I need to make sure of in the top end??

Nope, stock bore. The crank looks pretty marred up, thers actual divots in it, I just picked up a crank for it. Are there any posts on rebuilding the bottom end?? I've never done it before, and have no idea what I'm getting into. I also dont have any kind of a crank or flywheel puller or...

I already did buy the piston. I bought a .020 over wiseco. The cylinder looks fine, thers really no scoring or marks in it, it should be fine. I'm much more worried about the crank, the crank is turning over fine now, but I bought a new crank for it anyway, its marred up pretty good and theres...

Haha I could really use some suggestions here

would those little particles be able to get into the main crank bearing? Its just stuck, then it frees up, then stuck, it just doesn't feel good.

Got out as much of the piston fragments as I could, took the piston off the rod, crank won't spin freely at all, at first it bearly spun at all until I sat there and tried to spin the crank by hand, which probably wasn't a good idea. I found alot more pieces as I forced the crank to spin little...

It was stock. What should I do about it possibly being everywhere throughout the motor? How can I get that out, or make sure theres none in there, I'd really hate to rip into the transmission

Pulled the head, got the cylinder off. It looks like part of the skirt broke, theres some metal fragments on top of the crank. I really hope It didnt make its way down in further, I'm going to suck out what I can with a vacuum cleaner.
