Engine Swap / Replacement advice.

[benny hedges]

if it's big ends you will want to check the oil pump very carefully, as oil pump low pressure is one of the possible causes

funny thing that.... low oil pressure can wreck big end & main bearings... but a symptom of worn shells is unusually high oil pressure.

good luck with it seb and if you get stuck give us a shout.

Cheers to all the guys for the help

will probably take you both up and contact you when i make some sort of mistake

looking forward to having it running so i can strip the original engine repair it and learn a bit about it, last engine i had in complete bits was an RM250 years ago, wish everything was as simple as a two stroker
