Just my 2cents, A 30 year old pressed crank should be acessed by some one with the equipment and experiance to proprly determine it's cond.regardless of your' future desires,this is the base. to have it sent out and checked without welding, silly. cyl bores,it costs as much to replace w/stock as to big bore w/out sleeves. why not step up? unless building a monster, and playing the game a 1075 should last it's lifetime. camchain and chicklets/tesnioner blade, definitly. bearing rollers, you must be the judge. at @ $100.00+ a pop for a idler which lives in an oil rich envirnment and has a low load tis hard to justify. i love my Zed. hope you feel same. G
Definitely, I was planning on sending the crank out to be true and, welded as well as having the overall condition checked however I have done quite a few motor tear downs and, rebuilds so, I am pretty sue I should be OK for he most part. I appreciate your input and yes, I do love my Zed more than a fat kid loves cake.

i have a 1075 kit with .395 web cams and 29 smoothbore carbs every time i have any of my motors down to bare bones they get a new cam chain a one piece one none of the master link type don't trust them never will. don't worry about the oil pump just pull it apart and look for major scoring if it is good put it back together and reuse it these engines are roller bearing so they run very low oil pressures in fact so low that you would need a special gauge just to read them properly. if you are in to performance definitly get the crank welded and trued while it is out with the bigger cams i would be a good idea to get some port work done at the same time as well as heavier valve springs and don't fool around lapping the valves get a real valve job done all you do is wear out the valves by lapping them and making the seats wider then needed. put a good ignition on it while your at it . good luck and e-mail me if you have any questions
Why not lap the valves? The KZ guy i know, Ed Allendorf swears by lapping them.
