For **** sake, get someone to look at the bike who know's what they are doing, all this guess work ain't going to fix anything

Wire me the money and I'll take it straight to the best indy shop in Florida. I bought an evo to be able to work on it myself, it's just all new to me and I'm overly cautious when repairing something I'm unfamiliar with. I know how to use a wrench (worked in a auto shop for almost 10 years). With the help of the forum, manual, and the 'net I'll be just fine.

By the time you're done with this, you'll know the top end and the cam chest well. Then maybe you can get Big Trev to pay you to fix his.
