    If you pull the bearings ... at all. Have that done at a machine shop and align bored or you'll most likely kill your motor in say 2-200 miles. Our motors are very ....extremely finicky about bearings.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Interesting. When I changed pistons and bearings I didn't have it bored or anything. Been running strong now for 100k miles. Just dumb luck?

    From everything I've seen, tried and read about. I'd say yes. Maybe I'm wrong..there's far too many that have failures though.
