Hi there,
Interested to hear your thoughts on dropping the engine. It appears that removing the heat exchangers can be quite challenging. So, if that happens to be the situation, what's your procedure for dropping the engine with the heat exchangers still attached to the motor? Any recommendations, tips, suggestions, or workarounds would be appreciated (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I understand that handling the heat exchangers can get tricky when the muffler is detached… Thanks in advance! |

Taking the HE off isnt the hard part, getting them to seal up against the heads again without overtorquing the nuts and pulling out a HE stud is the tricky bit.
