Does it bleed for six or seven days every month too?

it's made me bleed several times, it tends to bite when you least expect it ;p

she's a dirty dog!

Enough of this, lets see some more pics and stuff from fastfrog

I'm waiting for new parts to come. 3mm packer, new head, batch of head gaskets...
I need the packer to start the case job. I'll start the slight inclination from the packer cos the case flywheel side transfer is tapered reducing the seal surface. Am I clear??

Back to the o-tuning stuff:

Mark Br. did me a very nice 68 mm cnc head with a 1mm recess. A much more matching head than the one I ordered a bit too fast weeks ago....




with a 3mm base packer piston at TDC is 0,5mm out :


inlet:

packer cut:

good thread
did you look into other piston choices ?
I am going for an RD350 standard 64.00mm on mine, as they are a good piston, readily availble, and reasonably inexpensive.

i looked at every 67-68mm I could easely find and tune. This one is a bit expensive but forged....

classical issue: no meat to port it well (left transfer right on the pic)...
I'm good for a bit of a welding job...

back to the lth reed.
cut a 1,5 mm packer to secure manifold seal pad.

full throttle:

manifold reshaped to match a dello PHBH. ghee! a real pain in the arch....

base welded and skimmed:

Porting job tonight!!
