in need of some engine work...

[jonan]

ive been struggling to get my 83 honda shadow 750 (vtwin) back on the road for too long now... i put 400mi on it last year and the rear cyl lost compression.

ive never rebuilt an engine, and would really like some one to help me.

im pretty mechanically inclined, ive changed the timing belts on a couple civics by myself, replaced a clutch on an 87 300zx, blah blah blah...

i would really like someone to work on it with me that knows what they are doing.

after looking into it i would like to reseat valves, check lifter settings and replace rings on both cyl. i have a repair manual. i also have and extra engine we might be able to get some parts off of, but the condition and miles are unknown...

i pay for you your time + food and beers

they bike is currently in westerville, and i really have no way of moving it or anywhere to work on it. i would need to borrow a trailer or truck, i have a ramp and i could borrow my dads escape to tow.

any ways i feel like im rambling so someone help me plz

come on somebody has to be able to help me...

[Disclaimer]

I like turtles.

What kind of money are we talking about?

American Dollars, but I thought that was already implied. Would you rather he use Mexican Pesos, or perhaps Zimbabwe Dollars?

ok... yes USD +food and beers!, i not made of money and im not sure how long it will take so... what do you guys think would be fair?

im not trying to get something for nothing...

parts, not including shims for tappets or anything else found wrong when taken apart will cost about $300.

pm if you can help
