Maybe, Honda has great cranks but if I have to I will hoping it's not really screwed up I might make a mini stroker if I do

So the cases I got from my local guy was a sym left side case and an af16 stator side took it apart and found jb weld around the edges looked on the inside and looks like someone tried to open up for a stroker but I don't see any burn through holes that would cause leaks,the guy I bought the cases from said the jb Wells was on there to help seal too the sym case it's definitely way off when it comes to mating the af16 case to the sym case just want to get some advice on what y'all think,also the seal hole has a few Nick's in it should I try to jb weld it smooth or just go a little heavy on the hondabond??

Pressure wash and or elbow grease. I would not use anything harsh at all, especially muriatic acid. Blasting with beads or walnut shell media is another way to do it.

Had the day off cause the rain we been swamped at work, decided to button the engine up,also put new gears and gave it a all black under coating cause the cases looked like shit, waiting on a mount from japan cause i lost the original when i moved and also a new floor board cause the one i have is all janky and cracked almost at the finish line only thing left to do is paint the frame a matte black and start mounting and tuning hopefully will be able to get it together so i can ride down ocean city this year its been a long time coming
