just had a look at that, cant believe what hes asking pricewise, unless Im missing something?, will keep my eyes open on ebay for a cheap engine cover and look at this myself, location of the unit is obviously paramount, but nothing that a simple jig cant sort once you got one right

need to look at the thing about the GP clutch centre, as these pistons as standard are setup to push on a hardened steel pushrod of about 8mm dia

is a lot of money, but I suppose as with anything, if you cant do it yourself, then you either pay someone else or dont have it??
heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it does fail, hit them with it!!!

Aha good luck to you. I was going to look at the cost of doing it myself. That guys making a big profit. I reckon sell them cheaper but you will sell more.
