thanks, I was kinda thinking the same thing. gotta make sure the oil pump gear clears the new weld also. It's almost flush so I think it's Ok.

I did the dry assembly and everything seems fine. The trans won't shift into 2nd or higher, but I think this is normal because of the 3 balls in the trans shaft which are not spinning right now... anyone? :huh: First and neutral shift normally.

I still can't decide if I'm leaving out the kickstart shaft.. :S no time left to decide :pinch:

that o-ring in the middle. Is that a regular metric o-ring. I cant find it in the parts diagram.

It's the oil passage seal. it's not an o-ring, it has a flat side and a beveled side. I believe there's one under the oil pump also

Does anyone know if this hole leads into the cases? I missed it somehow when blowing out media... :angry: I'm hesitant to blast air into it in case it's just going to get pushed into the case. There's so much crud that I can't tell if the hole has a bottom or not. Grrrr... I spent soooo much time blasting and cleaning everything.... :S
