i cant believe your not swamped with requests to let people try this barrel ,
im currently without a lambretta but if i had one id be on my way to your house begging you to let me try it,
lets face it how often do you get a tuner willing to let someone he dosnt evey know take a untested pieceof his work
and let them test it ,
for all he knows the guy might use crap oil and thrash it from cold then come on here and say its a load of crap and siezed up on the first ride ,
hats of to you guys for being so trusting i just hope it goes to someone who knows what there doing

remember its mick abbys name on the line here guys so whoever gets it look after it

As much as I'd like to do this i don't think I'd be able to make the deadline. :(

I'll still bring the jam,cakes etc up to you when I'm up for a dyno session when I can get round to booking it. ;)

Cheers

I had a couple of PMs from a forum member, and so will be posting the cylinder out on Monday. He'll have to source a piston, and knows that its all very experimental, and that the cylinder may need further work once the piston has been sourced....but we'll take it as it comes and see what happens.

Will keep you informed! ;)
