Default cam chain/ decomp wieghts broken?

I recently just broke my cam chain,exhust rockerarms,the decompression mechanisim is mangeld, and my Craycraft camshaft is broken on one ear.I loved the way that cam pulled on top to.What looks like happend is that one wieght came off(or the pin sheared) and jammed the cam gear against the head causing the rest to break. I have heard of some others breaking thier chains but not no like I did. I believe what broke the rocker arms is the decomp pin being held out and the valves kissed the piston.Remarkably the valves are fine.I should have left it alone after Bob built it originally but I couldnt help myself. LOL

That sucks. That was a bad a$$ bike. I guess now you have to go bigger, oh well [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img].

I am going to be building up my bike soon, but I don't have the cash flow to do major work and send it off. I was thinking the Ross 12:1 and the stage 2 cam with springs. I will pay you if you can help me put it together. Where is a place around here that will do port & polish work and bore and hone? I will appreciate any help that you can give.
