Pulled valves, cleaned the crap out of the head, replaced valve seals, lapped valves, and reassembled head!!! Kinda a lot of work

Scrubbed the jug down too..
And on a more exciting note.... I found a guy not to far from me that is going to tear down a motor to sell me the cam chain guides!!!! That is the last thing that I need before reassembly

A project bike is very revealing..... like for example..... I've come to realize that every time I project how long something will take, I need to just double it...... I'll then be about 1/2 way there!
Re: 81 CB650, Where will it go from here?
With the rain over the last few days. You could have just hauled it all outside, and scrubbed it down completely.
ps. Still waiting on the pics of the exhaust!

Good idea on the scrub down I just pulled the pipes out from under my boat yesterday I'm working in Illinois through Thursday (happy independence day) so I'll try to remember this weekend.

Re: 81 CB650, Where will it go from here?
Replaced my piston rings and jug gasket. Put cylinders back in place.... All seemed well... then I noticed 4 large o-rings in my gasket kit pulled jug back off, replaced o rings around cylinder bases, put jug back on I guess that it was too fun to only do once!!!

Now your cam chain tensioner is still placed correctly in its groove?
Oh, I see, would be no problem!

Re: 81 CB650, Where will it go from here?
I'm waiting on my guide pins for my head to arrive in the mail (as i completely destroyed the originals during disassembly) so that I can reassemble the rest of my engine!!!
Now that I am getting closer to putting the engine back into the frame.... I think that I have decided to paint the case black.
Might as well make this project take as long a humanly possible (It's already been a year )
Any pointers on prep process, suggested product, etc?
I heard that Harley has a pretty nice spray paint for engine cases.....

Re: 81 CB650, Where will it go from here?
I should be able to finish getting my engine assembled today.
I have a couple of questions regarding my carb situation. I started a new thread here
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=8980
I'm sure that all off my questions already have answers on here. I have simply not found what I am looking for. Any help with speciffic answers or just some direction in helping to find the appropriate thread would be greatly appreciated

Re: 81 CB650, Where will it go from here?
Got it all back together only to find that I was unable to thread my head bolts back in!!!! I then tore it back down, pulling the cylinders back off to get at the bolt holes.... Guess what I found.... There was a bunch of engine gunk in them from disassembly.... FREAK!!! Why didn't I think to prevent this?!!!!??
So, I just bought all new head bolts since I screwed up some of the threads on a couple of them.
Now, I have to buy a tap to clean up the holes of which I began to screw up too before I figured out what was going on.
What freaking mess
Oh well, none of the damage was irreparable. I guess that I should be thankful

Re: 81 CB650, Where will it go from here?
Picked up new head bolts, ran tap down bolt holes (tap went right in without any problem ) put cylinder back on for the 4th or 5th time , and put head back on.... Now i have to come up with a nice accurate torque wrench so that I don't go screwing up all of my progress!!!
Man I wish that I could do this bike over.... I bet that I could cut my time in half.... or less.

Do not try going the cheap route on the torque wrench. A quality craftsman, or similar name brand tool will last longer, and give more accurate results for the money. Buying cheap tools is false economy.

Re: 81 CB650, Where will it go from here?
Thanks for the affirmation, Ghost
Got it all back together. Bolts are in place. Left loose until torque time. Cam, chain, timing marks are all lined up and ready to go (I actually felt like I accomplished something with this one)....
