Re: Building a new engine

To lay out where to machine/grind I recommend liberally applying an indelible marker to the surface and scribing your line using a gasket as a template. It works for me.

NOS TS1

Let me just see if I got this straight. You made a 3 pot caliper out of a 6 pot? Very clever. What was the donor? And if I may, was there any tricky bit or was it fairly straight forward?

Re: px 125 with Pinasco 177 kit

Check yr clutch gearing. Iirc the new Px's come with a 20 tooth clutch and that set up should easily pull a 22. That should help.
