Default unexpected benefit and a new problem

Broke another valve at snakehunt[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] My builder is fixing the head again. After all the grinding, porting, and milling, the heads about 2 pounds lighter[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]. On a side note, does anyone have a master link for the timing chain, it stretched so muchwhen the motor locked up I need to take a link out[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

dsnut, just replaced the forks and backcut the gears in march cause i poped out of 4th and smacked the piston last july when I broke the valves. CJG, the valves were handmade kibblewhites both times, same guy made them. This time no hit, looks like a head popped off. I've got woods valves for it, we didn't use them last time due to some issues with the shim unders. we're going to make them work this time.
