Every time I see painted engine cases I'm tempted to do mine (which are apart and have been freshly soda-blasted) but I know I lack the patience or skill to do it up right and I'll have paint flaking off in 3 months from now. Looks awesome.

I don't know what size your valve stems are but in the past I've used an automotive seal that the id was correct and trimmed the od if necessary. If your valve guides are in spec on the intakes, this won't be a problem if you can't find anything. They are not needed on the exhaust.

Man, if I would've known, I would've kept the exhaust ones on. I'm not sure exactly what their size is. I think I can find the seals, they're just way too expensive. I missed out on a great deal on ebay.
Pretty much drove the inner metal out with a screw driver, pounding it, then drove the screw driver between the outer metal and the hole in the hub and crumbled it. It was a BITCH!
Yea I was aware of bike bandit, but wasn't thinking of DCC until late last night. I hate the fact that both places charge almost a third of the price for shipping. I never really understood DCC's ridiculous shipping charges. Oh well, part of the fun I guess.
Does anybody know what these seals are for? Maybe I haven't ran into that yet, but I can't figure it out. Also, the damn seal kit I bought shorted me out a seal for the shifter. Bastards.
Also, does the transmission look ok to everyone? I want to make sure I have everything the correct way and the forks in the right places before I seal her up.

Got the valve train back in, but it failed the acetone test. Just ordered a lapping tool and paste.
Also taped up the parts to be cleared. I'm not sure what I want to do with the cylinder jug though, whether to keep it original or paint it black to match the lower and the head. I might just paint it and sand the fin edges.
