Finally took the top off my '82 CR480 to inspect.
The bore is good at std.
Ring end gap is waaaay out of spec, blowby on both sides of the pin.
Piston looks good but will be replaced as a precaution anyway.
Is this the stock piston anybody?
How the hell do these clips come out?
I mean there's no tang, no recess.
My only idea is with some sort of pick.

you can struggle for hours, or drill a notch by the clip like on a normal pistonHow the hell do these clips come out?

the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

I just seen today that Phil Denton Racing has made a new batch of rods for these motors if you need one.
