After thinking on this, the locator pins are drilled as a set. It might be possible to match halves this way. The outside milled surface should be smooth if they match. I had a guy washing rods for me while I was doing other things. I told him not to mix them up, they are bored as a set. They weren't marked, he walked away with all of them still in a bucket in pieces. I tried to match them by going by the grind marks. I put the engine together thinking I had it right. I fired it up and it sounded like new. It idled then froze up. I should have done it myself but the guy was whining about not having any money. I never made that mistake again. :angry:

Hello ! Thanks to every one for helping! I will post pics on monday, I think those small number indicated on inch halves should signified some thing and may help . i found this pic on the net this number i am talking about in the red square for the lower crankcase , the other one is on the top of the upper crankcase at the kick shaft localisation . Should be corresponding both ?

If you're talking about the ones in the circles, they are casting numbers. The one on the top of mine next to the kick start has no numbers in it. I don't think that will help. :(

If you have a bore gauge you could use trial and error assembling halves and then checking the crank bearing bores to see if they are round. Once you get a matching pair move to the next set and keep going...

Thanks! Some time numbers in this circle are invisible or hard to read!

They'd have to be. :unsure: When the tweekers down the street stole my cases, they didn't get the main caps. All they got was aluminum.
