    Rapid Ray and other engine builders

    ok here's the question
    i have this beautiful welded and balanced crank and it has some scoring on the starter clutch end (see the pic) is it serviceable
    or should i have it repaired and re-machined before i install it.
    this is the only thing wrong with it other than this it's perfect and has about 20,000 KM on it max
    i want to use it in my motor when i install an MTC 1055 kit compression is 12:1 so I'll need 94 octane to run it
    but what do you think about the crank????

    That is where the 2 bearings ride & I would have it polished & see how it looks after that. I think it can be made to work. Also, I have never heard of a 1055 piston kit. I am a WD dealer for CP Pistons if you ever need some made to your specs. A CUSTOM made set with all the bells & whistles, made to YOUR specs, with pins, clips, & rings would only be 700 bucks. You might find cheaper but you won't find BETTER! Ray.

      That would be a 2mm over GS1000 kit. 72mm or 1055cc for a GS1000. MTC used to make them in the day and had several still on the shelf a few years back. Dar
