jeepwm69 7,605 Posted February 24, 2022 Well I’ve seen some say that Shindy makes the OEM Honda pistons but don’t know if there’s any truth to it. They are less expensive than OEM and work perfectly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't seem to find much of anything really for parts I guess the 400fa isn't common 🤷 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toodeep 1,758 Posted February 24, 2022 @Rjohn the blueing on the crankshaft is normal so nothing to worry about there. The head on my donor motor was bad (valve seat came loose and did some damage) so I can't help with the needed parts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 7,605 Posted February 25, 2022 You might try some of the boards on facebook if you need a head. Honda Rancher club for one. I got off of FB, but that's where most people were selling parts a few months ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
