BTW, I've got LL5 too, haven't break in yet, hopefully this sunday. Have you ever take out LL5 conrod & piston ? I can't..... it feels there is no room to remove it. ( I want to use other conrod for break in process and after break in I put back the original conrod ).[/QUOTE]
yes u can take it out but it's not that easy compare to the others. from the down side view, pull the conrod a little bit from the left side. It's good to use other conrod 4 the break in but make sure the copper bush is still in good condition. if not ur piston n liner will not accurately broke in.. it took me one whole day to break in.. this engine is fasttttttt if properly broke in...realy fast.. good luck
