Hi, guys. I've been derping around on cb750.com, but really like everyone's build threads here. What I wanted to do was share my build, and maybe anything that comes up so we all can either learn from each other.

I picked up a clear title 1982 CB750 from a dude off Craigslist. The ad said the engine had good compression, and that it was in the Sandy storm and no water got in the engine.

That turned out to be a lie, and the engine is seized. (Maybe just rust, but after soaking the cylinders for several days with every mixture you can think of... I decided to pull it out.)

I'll go ahead and post some pictures up.

Second engine pull, the next day. (Donor engine)

I'll post more this weekend when I get some stuff sorted.
