west bend 820's and E bay

what's required to make your OLD 820 safe to run.

I think it's time to buy a ballistic blanket and hope it don't blow too soon.......

All you need, if the bore, crank and main bearings are good, is the latest rod and Bonbright super screws. It isn't until you start opening the ports up and upping the compression, thus weakening the barrel and increasing the RPM that they get fragile. TJ
