What is a top end??There's your problem, a top end kit isn't that expensive and also isn't that hard to put on

With the damage it sounds like you have had the bottom end needs to be checked for play, and thoroughly flushed. Remove piston and raise rod to top dead center. Hold the crank wheels firmly from spinning, and try to move rod straight up and down. If there is play there is damage at either crank to rod or crank to case bearings. If no play remove engine, remove magneto to keep it dry, and magnet from crank because it magnetizes crank making it hard to get all metal contaminates out of bottom end. Mark the outside before you take it off. Flush the bottom end several times with gasoline spinning the crank, and shacking the hell out of the bottom end. Turn bottom end upside down and flush it out good with a pressure nozzle on a garden hose. Flush out one more time using your oil fuel mix. Now you should be able to re assemble without fear of screwing up your new top end.There is bad scratches and piston ring melted on the front..
Really helpful man thanks.With the damage it sounds like you have had the bottom end needs to be checked for play, and thoroughly flushed. Remove piston and raise rod to top dead center.

I have had "some" luck slotting the broken stud with a dremel and removing it with a screwdriver when it's broke even with the block, as well drilling the stud and removing it with a easy out. If you take the easy out route you need a steady hand and a good eye. If you get off center the bit will walk into the alum. of the block. I have also used heli coil kits for these repairs. It is especially tuff on the front mount. I've had some bad luck with these problems too. It's a crap shoot. We all like saving a buck, but sometimes it costs you ten to do it. I only do this when I know it is a good running engine worth trying to save. When these methods go south I cut my losses and start with a clean slate. The motors really aren't that expensive when you consider knowing everything is brand new, as opposed to building on a bottom end that has probably had the crap road out of it you are by far time and money ahead.Now I have a screw broken off inside my new motor I bought it for a few bucks (all about a deal lol) but that's the only problem with it so my crank with a blown piston can I replace the parts inside the crank itself? Its a z-l bottom end witch ppl tell me is better than what I have anyway I have some old Chinese weird crap lol
