Here are some picks of my 750 build, just swapped it into the frame a few days ago
Dyno Dave identified these early cases as having a few carry over characteristics, there were in really good shape regardless (no play in intermediate spindle, , but I modified them for the comstock rear case breather, reinforced them, installed new cam bushes, had to openn up the cam tunnel to fit the Web312 cam, installed new superblends etc..
New H beam rods from Don, crank was dynamically balanced to suit
reaming out the crank for 3/8 studs
the 3/8 nuts don't clear the flange on the 750 crank so I had to shoulder them to fit
head work by Mr Comstock
new rods installed, as with other's experiences, the 3/8 rod bolts contacted the cases so I had to chamfer them for clearance
I reinforced a cradle and swingarm set I picked up for a decent price
cam degreeing was helped by the new cam sprocket RGM is selling, it has 3 keyways on it, allowed me to get the few degrees of advance that was suggested by JC and others
more cam degreeing
pistons ready to install, skirts and crown coated with the thermal/slippery stuff (yes, I know the risk)

But the lightened rockers should be good. Did you have the spindles drilled as well?
