Mkay screw it. I'mma give these TCM seals a go. If they suck and start leaking, oh well it was 4 bucks (that's with eBay bucks and a discount code) and I'll spend alot for skf or Malossi ?‍♂️

Ok last night I ordered the clutch housing bearings, ignition gear bearing, rear body mount post, them TCM oil seals, seal all, and Buna N gasket meterial. I might make a order for either a pipe to extend to air filter outwards (because it's wayy close to the pipe)or I could just one of those dt1 tripple stage filters (the one for the Baja that's long and slim), the dt1 would be $15 more than just a pipe to extend the existing angled short stack UNI filter out wards but it would look wayyyy nicer to get the DT1.
 
for only 15$ and a more desirable outcome id go for the DT1. if you have the stuff to extend the pipe could always do that for now, but as you are waiting anyway id just do the DT1

i just gotta get confirmation on the outer diameter before i get it. wanna make sure it'l clear the pipe.
 
Mkay got gasket meterial in (that black sheet) smells like ass ?, clutch bearings (the big bearings), the ignition gear bearing (the small one), and seal all. I think maybe tomorrow the oil seals will be here. IMG_20190506_150114.webp
Oh I also got the new body mount post Becuase I broke the other one by leaning on it (as I've said)

Mkay so got my stuff back from the machine shop. Got the intake manifold counter bored, decided not to get it counter sunk because according to @1Coopgt and a couple others, counter sunk head hex screws suck and I'm not gunna use it so it's been counter bored.

Likes kinda crappy but I'm still Gunna sand it down and make it look nice.
The ignition gear has been lathed down, and drilled out for a bearing and the flywheel now has a key way

Also instead of using a arbor spacer that wasn't the exact size
and half assing it, I just asked the machine shop to do it for me, and here it is, made outa steel for Max durability.

That's heat tape on the exhuast btw. The exhuast is close to the cage but not touching.

Looking good (y) what air filter you gonna ues l use? Have you tride to cut it yet? Sure you could get away with heat tape just were the pipe is almost touching? Think you should look at a wheelie bar(y):unsure: coz ol Frankie is starting to look like one demon machine:devilish:?:eek::LOL::LOL:(y)

im gunna get a silicone pipe, what u used for ur exhaust just bigger, and it'll relocate the filter to the front a big more. also the filter barely touches so with the slimmer tube it will have a good distance away from the exhaust and cause no problems (y) u'll see once i get the tube. might not be the most attractive but whatever works. i could probably get away with that long and slim dt1 but it would be close so i chose the tube route. on the wheelie bar, im looking at making one maybe, or get one of them aluminum dragster style ones for now and later shelling out the 130usd or so for the bebop rc one.:unsure: bebop is the best wheelie bar out there for bashers and its very durable just its expensive.
 
So got the air filter tube thing today, and this is about were the filter will land. I'm Gunna shorten it a bit because it touches the cage a little.

IMG_20190510_103611.webpim Gunna put some heat reflecter tape on the tube just to be safe ? I could also flip it and it would look like this

Just a fyi, I am getting sum steel tube to go into the filter side of the tube so the filter can clamp down on something solid instead of clamping on the silicone that can flex, just like the crazy Stu intake ? getting closer!
