    rebuild kit

    i almost got my top end tore down. i had to pull the head and cylinder off together. i am having trouble getting the 3 bolts with the allan heads out.

    anyway where is the best place to send the cylinder off and get a piston and rings to match?

    i guess i need to buy new bolts with allan heads to replace the ones that i stripped out too. can i buy these too.

    You have to determine if you need to send the cylinder off. If it is badly scored it should definitely be bored, if not you could just hone it. But without a bore micrometer there is really know way to know if it needs a bore or just a hone. If you got the money best bet is to send it off.

    dripp the tops off and you can dissamble it, then later you can use vise grips to grab the big shaft sticking up. makes it easier and less damaging to the engine.
