i've tried looking for a master kit, but it seem that NONE of the manufacturers are making master kits anymore.

you would just need to find yourself a ring kit, and then a bearing kit.

make sure you check all the clearances and double check everything when you rebuild this. some parts are really really hard to find, and you dont want to rush it and screw something up.


did you find out anything about the musical flashers?

I found this link on the forums about a master rebuild kit but, I didn't see any feedback about it, or if its still available.

As for the musical flashers, I only have the info that was given by another person further up this thread lol.

Haven't been on in a while. Been swamped with other projects, putting stereos in and fiberglassing projects.

Anyway, I went ahead and ordered the rebuild kit from Northern. Should be in next tuesday. Since I didn't get much for pictures taken of the disassembly, I'll get some of the rebuild.

Well, the rebuild kit from Northern worked beautifully. Engine is put together, everything but the oil pan. Someone moved my parts off the oil sump, and lost my oil pick-up tube that goes from my oil pump into the pan. I'm a bit peeved. And I can't find one, anywhere. Any ideas?
