I found another motor and just couldnt refuse a great deal
I designate this build as my winter project. I havent taken any pictures yet because just about everyone has seen a bare block before. when i got this thing the guy had already stripped it down to a bare block except RUSTED crank, stator, flywheel, trans, and rear rim. This thing had apparently sat outside for years with the rain pooling in the crankcase, bearings and crank completely rusted. Not sure if i can use the crank because of all the rust pitting but i did manage to clean it up and free the bearings even though they are noisy
i have wire brushed every piece to a shine and placed them in a box as I gather all the other necessary parts. Recieved a package yesterday with ANOTHER bare block
Contained within was the block minus all but the crank, flywheel, stator, and most of the trans luckily i had the missing gear for a future build. In the box was the entire drive train, belt, kicker, aftermarket shock, mount, starter, and other misc parts. cracked this case to get the crank and bearings and cleaned it up and stored the cases. Bearings are good and the crank is clean other than a few flattened threads on the flywheel side
Placed an order with powersportsplus.com for the seals and other misc bolts and gaskets I need which I will trace onto gasket material for future builds especially the trans gasket. I plan to lay all the parts out today and get some pics, make a checklist the rest of the parts i need and sort bolts from the bolt bin
Dont even know what I am going to actually put this motor in yet if all else fails I have the stock Spree to mutilate
