Hey guys, my Clymer gives me head bolt torques but then says 250ES which is the same motor but still seems unclear and I want to be certain. Could someone scan their OEM Honda shop manual for the cylinder, head and valve cover torque values?? Or just list them?? My Clymer also doesn't list some of the torques for the cam chain tensioners and I forget if it gives me the cam to sprocket torque. I'd like to get this motor back up and running by this weekend. Thanks very much for any help!!!

Yes please, I'd like to get this done tonite if someone is online. I can't believe I never bought a shop manual but I've never had to rebuild a motor on an SX yet.....

Thanks very much!! I wonder if that manual is still available or just copies??

Anyhow, now I can get this high compression, Web Cam, chrome moly valve spring and retainers SX beast up and running :cool:

got it together yet? I'd like to know how much of a difference that high comp piston makes and If the web cam makes a noticible difference.

It better be... I bought the most aggressive cam they have that is a bolt in cam. I have about 500$ into the top end alone. It should be up and running today but I won't have the trike all together for a bit as I'm doing the 200X front end and I have an 87 rear end to put on this 1985SX. I'll be sure to let everyone know.
