SO, LOL
Fun with pictures. Any way I got my engine removed and can't remove the camshafts sprocket bolts, seems like they might have been RED lock tited . Figure I will have to break out the torch and bring the bolts to 550 *F , unless so9me one here knows of an alternate method. I tried a head gun for about 5 minutes and no go, the sprockets will skip on the chain.
Engine looks kind of clean, any ideas are welcome.

Reason: picture
there was just so little and some how there was oil in there with it. This brings me to think that the engine overheated .
Out the bolts came and I moved in and removed the camshafts and CCT .
End of story.
Camshaft journals and tappets/followers are peach.
I am starting to believe that the bike only have 16K on the clock as it was originally advertised.
The compression rings are aligned on at least a couple of the pistons I checked.
I think the original damage to the bike was done out of biker/rider ignorant racing habits/abuse.
