Just noticed I meant chamfer not chamber.

Scuff up metal plates, that's complete new one to me.
You make sure plates are flat with no discoloration from heat. You soak friction plates in oil and install chamber side of plate towards engine.
Make sure baskets are not notched from hammering of plates.
This be good for 150 hp any more use one standard diaphragm and one stronger one.

Also really can't beat good quality impact gun too.

They are the tools I learnt Lee.

I have found lot better clutch action and with version I have made using 6 springs lever action is so nice.
-
The 6 spring is far nicer clutch to use.

Can't argue with that Clive proper out of practice.

Got a chance to finish the carbs last night. Apart from the o-rings for the balancing tubes being the wrong size and having to scour the floors and benches for the old ones (found 5 out of 8 - some came from the 750 carbs I chopped up), it's all good. Of course I forgot to take a photo of the completed carbs (They just looks like some carbs). Bench balanced by shining a torch down the progression holes and looking for the edge of the throttle blade. Also fitted the stepped carb washers from @jonny1bump- I measured the needle protrusion with verniers before fitment, and again after and was surprised so see it was bang on the same - I'd assumed, looking at the washers, that they'd sit a little thicker than stock, but they're bang on - I didn't realise the stupid step in the slides was quite that tall!
Crap photo of the step in the slide - difficult to photograph - was shining a torch down it to try to get it to show up.
Stepped needle washers vs stock - you can clearly see why they cock off to one side and wear the emulsion tube oval.
Wife was happy to have her friand tray back. (I think she's used it maybe once?)
I'm pleased your happy and worked out as they should. Looking at pic advantage you have the plastics not warn to start with, so very astute move.
The difficulty is replacing all worn stuff base setting lost really unless you renew tubes and needles.

Take the cams out, if your cam chains jumps a sprocket that would be real bad news. Short cuts do not always work out.
The amount work involved is minimal to give you clear access does not make sense not to do this.

Latest rebuild down a little but not much really pulling really strong, and not ideal weather conditions for big power, Russ did manage to find little bit low down for me, was good to learn even when you been doing it for ever. Always be prepared to listen as they say. Thanks Russ.
One thing he did say which I've been saying for years.
DONT CHUCK THE AIRBOX.
