The friend I got It from passed away years ago He a blew a hole in engine case from a lost chain He got cases as close to the factory numbers and had a dealer swap all the parts I hate to talk ill of the passed one but You almost had to pry a buck from Him Yet He paid $1100 for the swap years...
D.D. waiting for My Grandson to get some time off from the dealership to give Me a hand removing the motor got some heart issues and others going on. Let Ya know when I get it apart.
Slept on the idea overnight and decided to leave it. The compression is 125 to 130psi dry wet check 170 plus so that's an issue. At My age I think the chain might outlast Me. I was always one to perform preventive maintainance on every thing I own but I think this is one thing I will leave...

Been a long while since been on here, I need some advice for a 1971 sohc I want to send My cylinder out to Cycle X for a next size overbore and get a set of pistons and rings from them. My question is would it be a bad move to use the original cam chain with 8,200 miles I hate to tear the bottom...

Hi everyone long time since I was on here, Anyway I have a lot of air coming from the tappet cover when running at idle I thought this pressure was released out the breather hose nothing comes from it if it is it is unnoticeable any help much appreciated. Thanks
I looked at Mine which is a 1971 titled as a 1972 and the two on it has a section of rubber hoses connected to those and tucked on top of the air cleaner box. Perhaps for breathers or vents.
