istoleacamaro Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 So i bought a banshee that was blown up, melted a piston. Started to disassemble it and had the cylinders bored 30 over and bought pistons from jeff and got gaskets and all of that stuff. I was going to reasemble it this weekend and took it to jeffs and one of his employees noticed that my crank was purple and that it was rubbing on the cases. I guess it shifted over. So i say great and buy a clymers manual and attempt to disassemble it myself. Upon disassembly i notice the waterpump gear is melted and just kept going. I think im in way over my head and just want someone who will help guide me through the process... The book really doesnt do much for me. I dont know why. If anyone will please PM me.

Yeah hes been very helpful so far but he just physically cant be there to answer all of my questions, a lot of them have to be seen to be answered.
