mostly stripped down now...

note the valve on the left doesnt have a chip in it, its just wet and the cr*ppy phone camera picked that up
 

Head all cleaned up

bottom end exposed
 
and got bored and cleaned and painted the rocker cover and sump cover... like the colour?


 
hahaha - its just the undercoat... horrible pastel colour for a motor
