    ???Blown Head Gasket???

    Oil leak is actually from valve cover gasket. Took the battery all the way out to access the cam tensioner and it wasnt even the source of the leak. Oh well that allowed me to fully tighten down the two inner exhaust bolts nice and tight. :eusa_dance: Cooling down right now then change the...

    Nope they are all there. Careful what you say. I might need you to run back out to OC tomorrow, Mon, and pick up a piece of the exhaust. I dont think I got all of them.

    ???Blown Head Gasket???

    yeah I am pretty sure it happened while I had the bike. The piston and head "matched" each other with the gouges. Prezmek, nope not yet. My upcoming wedding has drained all time and resources. Gonna start looking at it afterwards.

    ???Blown Head Gasket???

    Engine is back together and in the bike. Assembly went pretty smooth. Cometic head gaskets and 60 ft/lbs of torque in 4 equal increments. Just have to finish putting her together now. Lord willing will be done tomorrow. HUGE THANK YOU TO DAVE!!!!! and my Son. Things went much smoother and...

    COP insulators?

    Wow Bob Did you just call me out on the forum??? Your original question was I tried giving you a solution, something you asked for. Guess I should learn my lesson and read your mind next time and answer the question you really meant to ask.

    cops and dyna ,but where to put the tach?

    Have you tried the negative wire of the COPS. That is where my Dyno guy hooks up with his inductive pickup

    COP insulators?

    Dont you have some industrial grade heat shrink at work??? I know you have some large voltage motors there.

    Car oil?

    Biggest thing is to make sure it does NOT say "Energy Conserving" On the back in the little circle. If it does your clutch will slip. I have been running Mobil 1 racing 15w-50 I like it because even when bike is at NOT I still get close to 10 psig at idle on my pressure gauge

    cops and dyna ,but where to put the tach?

    Yeah you will need 1-1.2 ohm 15-20 watt resistors inline with each COP or your Dyna will become a paper weight. I take it you have an aftermarket Tach??? Or are you trying to hook your Dyna up to a tach signal???

    ???Blown Head Gasket???

    Well this is just a testament to how well Sean builds engines then because the bike was running fine, plenty of power, good compression. Despite my best efforts to destroy it. I am going to smooth out the best I can the gouges on the heads, do minor surgery to the piston, slap it together and...

    ???Blown Head Gasket???

    I just had the carbs off a few weeks ago and they were intact. Float levels had drifted but all was well.

    ???Blown Head Gasket???

    Well dont have any idea what would have made it in there but something did. Not sure how I got away with this but the cylinders walls have absolutely no marks other than normal wear. Here is a pic Could it be pre-ignition or knocking since the cylinder walls were left untouched???

    ???Blown Head Gasket???

    From just a cursory inspection when I pulled the head I didnt see anything glaring on the piston or the walls.
