Guess the problem I had get $10.00 was created by 4TheKZ1000

Well, getting engine put together.

Set 1 and 4 to top dead center mark on advancer..
I pulled chain tight around crank.
slipped in cams and lined up marks
Set chain / sprocket at 28th pin on chain
Its kinda hard to put cam caps on due to cam lobe pressing on bucket. I guess this should happen.

All went pretty easy. I then went to rotate engine forewards and it is bound up. The engine will spin backwards but is stiff and made a clicking sound off and on????

I cant seem to figure it out.

First thing I thought of too but I'm guessing the motor is out of the bike so engine would still turn over.

Probably has something to do with the blood moon....or....

Did you have the transformation synch gear cog installed and timed to the frequency transducer? Is the rubber band too tight around the sonic blast generator?

That's what I would check first.
