Been 2 years and some change but I have made decent progress the ol' 81.
The engine is nothing short of a beast. A ton of work (mechanical and aesthetic) has gone into the motor making it a fire breather once again. I scored a piston from England last year and then sent the cylinder off to get re nik'd. I then sent the piston and crank down to crank works for a complete overhaul and balance. Once I started assembly of the motor it went along pretty well until the piston was hitting the cases. I had to take .080 off the intake skirt which was only 1.5 grams which presents no issues to my balance job from crank works. The pressure test revealed the head was severely warped so I hand lapped it back to form. It holds 6psi all day if want it to. A couple big shout outs to ironchop and chris parciello. I scored a new intake from chris and then massaged it for better flow. I then had ironchop cnc grooves the NOS elsinore 500 intake so I could use O-rings. Here is some timeline pics and how it sits today. She won't be like this for long though. I have the swingarm coming in a couple weeks along with a 41.5MM taper bore PWM. My custom PEP, ZPS shock is also being made. I would like to have it back on 3 by late spring. Enjoy the pics.
That thing is going to be a work of art. It's sad......back in the heyday of this place, this thread would be 10 pages long already.
