Split the case

Case splitting was the biggest PITA yet on my project. See this thread for details:

My case does not want to separate

Anyway, its apart now. Almost ready to make a trip to the machine shop now.

The first look at my innards:



Other case half. Really cool to see firsthand how the oil flows through this thing.



Staring down the bearing saddles...



The crank has a couple of journals that have me concerned...with a noticeable groove right where the oil holes are...I suppose this is a sign that some abrasive junk has been pumped through the oil system. It doesn't look really bad, but I'll let the machine shop make the call on this.
