I like the part numbering system as it shows a history even if some #'s got superseded it still will give the timeframe of the design. Another tip on the chains and length is to count the pins old & new to see the stretch and if the tooth count changed on the sprockets to increase the radius/diameter; larger sprockets cause less wear on chains. I thinking they went from the 5 chain to the 3 chain due to the aforementioned comment I made also.
Did you consider putting a small drop of blue loctite on those bolts? I'm about to start my assembly and I'm going to do it, unless you have a reason not to.
+@eggbertfarnsworth5787 which bolts? Typically I don’t put anything on the threads as it affects the torque. Exceptions are when Jake specifically says to ;)
@@HelpMeDIY All of them (all the ones you installed in this video). I did wonder about the torque, although in general it's usually assumed the threads are at least wet (with lube) so the Loctite can provide that, even though inaccurately. I put priority on the Loctite as I don't want any bolt inside the engine that is so completely inaccessible (such as inside the case halves) to come loose. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this series of videos. T-Y.
Woo how. Back to assembling engines!!
+@jeremypringle5368 yessir! 🍻
