Slow Going........

Been a slow couple of weeks, piston and rods are now in place, these weight in at around 40 grams per cylinder lighter compared to standard rod and dome top piston.


Unfortunately I had to return the new camshaft, just waiting for a replacement to arrive and that will be the bottom end complete. Spent a couple of evenings this week cleaning up the head.
New valves, double springs and alloy spacers now installed


Head was ported and polished by a friend of mine, unleaded exhaust inserts fitted, new guides and inlet manifolds pinned and ported to match the head, looks great, the photo's don't really do it justice.


Hopefully the cam may arrive in the morning and I can finish the build.....................
