when i took apart my buddies 86 350x that grenaded, i noticed that the woodruff key looks like it is an advance key, like the one you can get for 400ex's. its offset a bit, is this stock?

If the motor grenaded I would be willing to bet the key is just about sheared off. It is NOT stock.

the key's not sheared or anything, it just looks the ones for the 400's. are the 85's and 86's the same, didn't honda try to make the 86's easier to start, maybe the key retards the timing slightly?

I thought they did that through gearing on the kickstarter shaft, but I might be wrong.
