bill blue 351 install instructions

bill blue 351 install completed!
Does anyone have a copy of the installation instructions for the bill blue 351 kit?
I recieved parts today with no instructions...
Looks simple enough and I am guessing the arrow on piston points to front of engine but jsut want to be sure... also for torque specs...
Thanks!

Instructions consist of the Kawasaki service manual also there are a few good write ups here on KF...
The 351 is not a hard job, but it isn't an easy job either. The right tools , some common sense, and a lot of patience are all required.
Get a manual, a good torque wrench, and take your time.
I can email you the base manual if you PM me your email address.
Here's a write up I did on my 351 install. https://www.kawasakiforums.com/forum...s-links-32538/
Good luck ,

well got the whole thing striped down and new piston installed.. set the rings according to manual as well. Just need to clean the old gasket material off the crank case. I read some posts on the forum that say with the newer gaskets you dont need any asket maker material. true?

when i was doing my valve adjustments....i ended up spending lot of my time scraping and cleaning off the massive amount of hardened kawasaki factory silicone on the valve cover....i was told if i don't clean it off well before adding the rubber gasket back on and using new permatex (little extra on the half moon and light around), it could leak....i listened and did a really good job cleaning the factory silicone....over a 1,000 miles and no leaks after valve adjustment
