Thank you so much for mentioning that after installation of the cam chain tensioner the marks will be slightly off from when the chain is slack. It was driving me crazy until I saw your video. No one ever mentions that. They probably don't even look!
Do you put gasket maker on mating surfaces that have a gasket as well as those that do not? And, if you do put it where there is a gasket, do you put it on both sides of the gasket? One other thing, do you leave the cylinder studs in all through the cleaning or have you replaced them with new ones? Thank you so much for posting this. This is my first motorcycle rebuild and your video is very much appreciated.
Sir. Did you also add some bond to the area were you added the furnace tape ? I just started to rebuild a 360 engine that was smoking and had some metal in the oil. It looks granular in substance. Thanks. Great video very helpful.
Sorry to ask another question. How are the valve stem rubber seal replaced? Is there a special tool? Or do I just pry them off after I remove the small spring that goes around the rubber seal? Thanks
No problem, I just get under the base of the seal, pray off with a screwdriver or two and the new stem seals should have the spring on them already. Make sure you lube end of the valve stem before installing the seals. Hope that helps.
You do a very nice job with info, production quality and filming. Thank you for your attention to detail.
I try my best, thanks. And thanks for watching.

No, just the gaskets. With the newer gasket material it has better seal. Thanks for watching

No bond add just clean the area where it was placed. The furnace tape bonds pretty well. Thanks for watching
Thanks

Hello Greg Here. Thankyou for the info@@outlaw86custom
What do you use to get your parts so clean?
Brake cleaner from O'Reilly's or diesel that I have in my washdown tank. And sometimes the pressure washer. Thanks for watching
How is the workability on this engine compared to the 650 XS engine?
Actually they are a simple engine to work on but they do have their quirks like all engines do. Thanks for the question
Thanks you for the answer.
