You can easily replace it. They can be often found on ebay. Also found on aliexpress for 6 to 10 bucks plus shipping. It would be a good idea to pull the oil pump to help match it to your...

Most of those are also splash oiled for redundancy, like I already stated, so they are still likely ok. The entire bottom end is designed around that concept, intentionally, so it can survive low/no...

Meh, it will probably be fine. Most of the engine is also splash oiled so it will likely be ok. The valvetrain would be the thing that suffered the most. Worst case, it needs a top end, and those are...

The funny thing is, as long as the dyno knows what gear you are in, the only thing that changes is how good the graph reads. It will still show the right hp and torque figures. The only reason it...

Gearing does change the amount of torque at the rear wheel. That's what gear ratios do, divide rpm and multiply torque. Horsepower doesn't change because it is a function of rpm and torque. Changing...

the rocker didn't fail, the casting of the rocker box probably just had a flaw/crack in it. The rocker is still whole and on it's shaft.
