Couldn't find the old thread, so started a new one. Anyway........... I had assembled an engine with Yamabond between the case halves and the endplay was excessive (.025"). There was some question as to what if any effect the Yamabond had. Well, I finally got around to taking it apart, cleaning it up , reassembling (dry), and the answer is......... none. Still had .025" (no shims). Shimmed the timing side bearing and now a bit less than .003". Should be able to get back to it and finish assembly in a couple days.
