As for the bore(s) - follow LM's advice or take it to a machine shop and ask them to hone the bores.

I think the metal bit protruding may be from the bad right piston. I'm going to have these professionally cleaned up, but what do I tell the machinist I need? Keep in mind the new piston and rings are not oversized.

After putting a missing washer on the bolt and attempting to re install the bolt, it spun freely, and I ended up pulling the threading out with the bolt. The little devil on my should is saying "eh, dont worry about it, the starter motor is holding this corner of the cases together." How would you fix?
While I wait for answers, I'm going to get this little guy on the road. The neighbor kids are going to go nuts when its done!

LM - Those kits are simpler than the genuine Helicoil kits. I have several sizes and they work pretty well.

I checked the seller and he doesn't offer any other sizes but I find all sizes (cheap too) by looking through eBay.
I like TIME CERT better and use only them for spark plug thread repair but there is a big difference in cost of the other sizes. ...........................lm

There is more choice of that style on UK eBay . If you see anything you fancy, I can bring some out on my next US trip.

Would've saved $10 on the helicoil buying it online, but impatience got the better of me.
Going to use the 3 stone hone tool on the sleeves since no ones cursed me for bringing it up. Quick back and forward motion, and won't let up off the trigger until the tool is out of the barrel

Thank you for the offer.
I'm about to order some M12 for spark plug holes and the company I order from has good prices US.
What is the exchange rate at this time "G"?. ...........lm
