    Doh........ I certainly was not trying to make anyone feel bad. I was trying to congratulate all that helped. And pick on Squeeze a little.

    Nice job everyone. Good luck to all.

    Hmmmm Looks like Squeeze REALLY wants that trailer. Good job Squeeze, and everyone else that chipped in. I wish I could have done more to help.

    I don't see anything showing up on Spotwalla?

    Told you it wasn't so bad. I hope you are using NEW seals and valve cover gasket so that there will be no leaks for the next 20 years? But then that big hose that you "pulled" out.........

    Don't forget what Gary said here. You MUST use the same cap in the same place because they are bolted up and machined in place. My caps or anyone else's will NOT work on your head. That broken peice should not be any more than finger tight in there.

    Mine showed up today also.

    Here is what the top of a head and cams look like. It should be no problem to remove the cam cap to get the broken screw out. If you are going to try to drill it for an easy out, make sure you use a left hand drill, I'd bet the drill will spin it out before you even get much of a hole. Start in the morning and you should be on the road by noon.

    I didn't even think about the valve cover bolts screwing into the cam caps. I have a set of heads from an 85 at home, I will check it out tonight when I get home. My bike just came out of hiding yesterday and it is really nice out so I may end up taking the long way home. There is about 100 miles worth of gas left in her.

    On second thought,,,,,,,,,, Put a cork in the hole and go for a ride.........

    Nothing else is connected to them but it does take some wiggling to get them out and back in. I think there are some plastic heat shields that have to come out but they are snap in place. If you didn't before this would also be a good time for NEW valve cover gaskets. IIRC it took me about two hours to do both valve cover gaskets and all 16 new bolt seals. That was the very first wrenching I did on my '88, it was leaking bad when I bought it.

    Yup she was out half nekid again today. And I ain't tellin..........

    +1 on take off the valve cover and use a sharp punch, prick, awl or something similar to work the broken screw out till you can get it with a pliers. Depending on just how deep it is you could also use a Dremel with a cut off wheel to make a slot in the end of the broken screw to use a flat blade screwdriver to get it out. The slot in the end of the boss will not hurt anything since it is hidden under the valve cover. Just use a lot of rags and magnets to keep the grinding dust under control. There is also a reason that a number of us recommended AGAINST what you did and tried to talk you into doing it right with new seals. Get a NEW set of seals to put it back together. Hopefully you did not warp the valve cover with the extra pressure from the added washers. Taking the cheap way out is often more expensive than doing it right the first time. Or does this mean you are now shopping for a 2nd gen to put on the porch?

    Either this guy is really strong or this is gonna really hurt.

    I saw a maroon 2nd gen headed east on Layton Ave headed into Cudahy tonight. It was a 2nd gen running side by side with a 2 up Harley, so I had no problem catching up, but there was to much other traffic to get next to then to see who it was. Was it anyone from here?
  23. Flyinfool

    Block will not get damaged if "bumped" into in the first place. Block will not start to rust in 1 years or so. Block will most likely outlive you. You could still go with a metal roof over block. I am looking at going to a metal roof on my house soon. I may not know everything about building but I do know enough to have a 1st gen.....
