i was going to pick up a 99 gsr block for 200
with a burnt main bearing...i am going to get it resleeved
with new rods and pitons but what does it mean that the
main bearing is burnt and is it fixed easy???

thanks george

 

give me all the feed back you know!!

 

anyone??

 

A few things to check (kind of extreme, but always possibilities).... make sure the crank is ok and still good, make sure the main caps are not warped or a cylinder has sunk in result of it (even if resleeving, the deck might be warped but that's pretty extreme, but I've seen it happen), make sure the girdle holding the caps together is ok. Just a few things to look into, but mostly check the crank where it was on that specific main cap.

 

i wont get the block..to much to worry about

thanks you...

 

make sure that the crank isnt out of round, or tappered, if not you can replace the bearing and youre good to go, you might want to use a plastigage, thats an easy way to tell.

 

I doubt the crank is good anymore....if you're lucky, a crank grind will save you.

You may also need to line hone the mains of the block also

 

sounds like too much...i passed on the block!

 

for what its worth.i have a 95 gsr 72k complete bttom half,cross hatch looks very good.650
