Hi all - We decided we are going to do this rebuild right and we will be splitting the crankcase on the LTD motor as almost everyone here has suggested. A few quick questions about this. Is it possible to do without taking apart the top end? Also, when we are putting the crankcase back together, what liquid gasket options do we have? The manual calls for Kawasaki liquid gasket which I'm guessing may be hard to find nowadays. Some people have suggested Yamabond (though not sure what #) and a few other things... just thought I'd see what has worked for you guys. Thanks!
Edit: one more thing: where can we find o rings for the gearcase/coolant pump in case they need to be replaced?
