Heading home from school at 4'oclock. Soon as i get in there i will digging right into that engine to replace the studs and hopefully get that shiny new head on. Got a compression tester and permatex motorcycle/atv gasket maker for the reed cage. Then on to jetting it correctly. So wish me luck and pray that i dont break and engine stud if you are religious :p hopefully i can get a running video for you guys to see this weekend
 
it isn't hard to put the studs into the jug.

just take your time with everything and double check yourself.
no need to rush it and mess something up.
 
do you not have a machine shop by your house?
i know the guy that does my boring would put studs in for me and take out broke ones, but i put mine own in last time with just some vise grips.
 
just make sure you clean everything before you put it back into the engine.
like for the studs, make sure the hole is clean or any shavings.
 
haha, nope, had another engine stud prblem, got it fised, playing beer pong now though, bunch a rookies are failing bad, anyways, tomorrow i hipe to have the head on and the reed cage sealed and hope to be tuning, luckly i dont get hangovers, yet, so i should be working around 9. i will let you know.
 
holy horsepower batman, that was the best half drunk test drive ever, clearly i won beer pong, all my friends left hammered, so i worked away for a bit and she is together. Its holding 154psi and is running mint, didn't run it long cause i need to get the jetting right, but i can do that tomorrow morning, so pumped right now, throttle response is insane with the combination of the head and the reeds
 
dude don't forget break in proccedures. don't want to distroy that brand new top end. also did you do a leakdown on it? another sure fire way to fry it.
 
i only took the head off, so i dont think that i would need to break in, i got some opinions on here that agreed, and for the leakdown i am just waiting on a tester from holeshot
 
put the 310 jet in, ran pretty good, did a plug chop, sh*ttiest one i have ever done, mangle the plug bad, i dont know how bad the picture will be, but tell me what you think, i think it is pretty close to dead on, but i think i wanna go up a size, not gunna worry about it cause i wont be riding it till i get a leakdown tester. then i will do another chop. heres the plug

what do you think, i know that is prolly the worst looking plug chop ever, the saw hit the electrode in a couple of places, but hopefully u can see the good spot
 
yeah that thing looks white from here. always safer to run a touch rich. didn't know all the details of your build so i was just throwin the maditory bs out there incase you were still drunk and racin to get that thing going.
 
just to let you guys know, i used the 2 bolt technique to remove and replace the studs. If you dont know what this is, you put two bolts on the stud, then you loosen the botom one and tighten the top one so they get stuck together, then you turn the bottom one left to take it out, and tighten the top one to put them in, then loosen the bolts from eachother and you are set. Just dont go all he-man tightening them together cause you could pull threads apart on the stud if the threads are defective. It works well, and is really cheap
