What did your chain guide/wear pads look like?
I wish I had taken photos of those. All the guides were showing wear for sure. The paddles had the least amount of wear, but had definite tracks in them. The pads on the cam heads were the worst, about half way through the material.

Update and bump. Went through 25K miles post-build and engine still running strong and trouble-free.

Purrs like a kitten and revs smooth as butter.

For anyone else in this situation - you can do it yourself if you are handy and can read instructions.
