    5hp Hell back in the day you could see just as many bushing engines as bearing engines at any kart track. just like we do at the flywheel end drill an extra oil hole in the bushing at the PTO end.

    5 horse parts in an 8 horse ???

    Ditch the fhead and the animal. go for a honda less to buy new and just as many aftermarket parts. will make more power dont get me wrong love the old flatheads probably built over 400 of them. but overhead valve is just more efficient hands down.

    HS40 intake valve seizing

    valve sticking I wonder if he finished honed the guide after replacement. when you install new guides they compress around the circumference. and they lose clearance. I set all mine about .0015 or like jaywrix said maybe a bent valve. just some food for thought.
