Buc I just read an article in Motorcycle classics magazine September/October issue. I fella was rebuilding a Honda that dropped a valve and messed up the motor big time. The connecting rod was twisted. He placed the rod at TDC clamped the crank so it would stay there. Put the wrist pin in the crank with a long punch for leverage. Heated the rod nice and red gave it the eagle eye treatment. When he was happy with the position he poured some oil on the rod to cool it off. Suppose to retain the hardness doing the oil thing. That bike runs great, how long it stays that way is another story to come!
