Has anyone ever replaced rods without splitting the block? I have i beam rods now and was wanting to switch to h beams.Bearings have little hours on them,so no need to split the block other then the rods.I have taken one rod out and put it back in another motor once but never all 4.Mike

Thought it could be done,just wanted to get another opinion. I have been getting on here alot,just haven't been logging in because computer wouldn't keep me logged in.I talked to James and told him that i will try to make the next trip with you guys. Have you ever rode there before?

Not sure if i will be able to get mine back together by the 17th. I might have to pick up some parts from Tim,so might come down just to watch. Will Darrel open up the gravel road to the playground? By the way,my heavy ass 2 seater can't keep up with you boys but still fun trying.LOL
