If your having issues with the battery not charging. Check your main wire connection from stator and all connection that have those wire clips. Even thou they look connected. They don't like staying in GOOD CONTACT. Have had it happen to me few times. Just lately. After getting new engine, I thought I zip tied the connections. Did double check, and was always jumping it. My amp gage was showing very low. Just thought battery was not taking charge. Then decided to double check connection. Sure enough, I never did zip tie those connections, After taking small zip ties, slip them through each bundle of wires, so zip tie don't slip off. And tighten it up good. Can even use heat shrink around zip tie, if worried about it rubbing on wires, behind the clips.
Once I did that, amp gage was showing back up where it should be, and haven't had to jump the battery since.

Have you added extra support where the motor mount connects to the engine frame? or spider box..?
If not, that will be next to crack on you.
