A friend of mine in Tucson Az. Was to work on the top end of my 06 mastiff unfortunately he had a brain aneurysm and passed. I got my back back but I'm missing the valves and all hardware for installation. He had managed to remove the cylinders to replace pistons and cylinders. Wife had no idea where anything was. He had multiple bike and hotrod but did all the work himself. I'm gonna tackle the task of building the bike myself. After taking inventory I realized that the heads came back bare. Hope you sell what I need sir.
Joe, sorry to hear about you're friend. Good friends are in short supply nowadays and hard to find and even harder to keep.
I admire the fact that you are wanting to reassemble you're bike yourself. You are in for a long adventure. Most experienced mechanics like you're friend don't inventory every nut and bolt that they remove and it is going to take some time and effort to get everything back in order.
About you're heads. Since the valves have been removed from the heads you're friend must have been planing on doing a grind on the valves and seats. This takes special equipment and skills. It also takes special tools to reinstall the valves and springs. You need to find a shop to do this work for you.
Next question. Do you have the rocker shafts and arms to complete the valve train assembly?
My personal recommendation is to call John Sachs at Sachs Racing. He is in Florida but he is one of the best and most honest guys you can find to do this work for you. Last time I spoke with him he was doing two or three hundred sets of Vtwin heads a year.
Good luck with you're project.
Frank
