so now i just need to get a few parts machined and balanced and i can assemble.

Those forged pistons look great! [:u]

Where abouts did you get those top mounts kr10?? Are they large hole or small hole?? I'm looking for some large hole adjusters but haven't have any luck!!

cheers

I love that colour mate - looks minty!

fpv escort: i sent you an email regarding the tops.

lincon: cheers, probably why the color is called mint glaze haha


got Monday off work :) so i can take the parts down to the machine shop. getting the crank,fly and clutch balanced. the block tested and machined for the bigger pistons and some head work done too.


cheers

Loving this build.

Looking forward to finding out how your engine comes together.

cheers for the support :)

dropped everything off today. getting the head machined to fit the bigger valves, the spring seats opened up to take the kent springs, the ports matched to the inlet and exhaust manifolds. also getting the block sonic tested and machined for the bigger pistons and everything balanced and a few other little things.

hopefully should have a motor ready to put together in the next few weeks
