Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Damage Assessment

[Davis Martin <martin-davis@xxxx>]

HURRAYYYYY!!! you finally got it figured out. No broken parts so you are definitly in luck. Now you can get it the rest of the way apart and bring it to a machine shop to see how far you need to bore it. Definitly I would reccomend getting the crank kit. You need to find out if the big ends of those 2 connecting rods need to be resized. If they do I can send you replacemeants that should be ok.

 Keep the updates comming Lu.
