I have done it before on sportbike engines & it SUCKS BIG TIME!!! I also had troubles with all of the engines I rebuilt so I gave that up years ago when I became sponsored by multiple shops .. now Im so out of practice (  was never that good ) that I really don't want to mess with it for a couple weeks to find out I did it wrong .. Shit just messing with plasty gauge SUCKS!

 So Im thinking find another motor .. But still thinking it over . one of the main things turning me to buying a new motor is the fact I havent even been able to find any rod bearings yet .
