Oh im in no rush to ride it, Ken himself said it can be annealed, hes done it multiple times with no issues....
Project "Blue"
- Thread starter 007blaster
- Start date
Got my new Vforce3 reeds in the mail and installed them 2 nights ago. Installed my reeds and intake, gaskets and sealer seeing as I have to work the next few days. Let it cure up good and do a leakdown monday and hopefully everything will be nice and tight, praying I dont have a leaky collar. With taxes coming back I cant blow it all but Im thinking about getting a +4 axle, CFM scoops and some nerfs.
Also picked up a 03+frame from Prime, cases from Ken and a cylinder/head from a buddy. Will be starting a second build this summer once "blue" is kinda where I want it. Just need a stock crank and suspension and I have everything else for a second bike...

Haven't been around in a while! Started a new job and moved. Just ordered some new tires all the way around and sprockets n chain. Gotta get her ready for this warmer weather! I'll post pics soon!
Nice, new shoes on the way!!!!!!!! What tires did you go with? Sounds like you have been busy but we still want pics.lol
In the hands of a master annealing a head gasket is a piece of cake.
But get it wrong by not having a large flame to produce an overall even temperature and dropping it on the cold plate other than flat, can result in hard spots in the copper
.If that happens believe me the gasket will leak.
The copper needs to be an even cherry red all over, not easy to obtain with a piddly little flame from a propane torch.

Lol right Joe. Guess they'll be done in the AM, previous owner put fix a flat in one of the rear tires and it corroded the aluminum causing the tire to leak, great...new rims for me in the future...anyone know of any 8" rears for sale???
