Now Al Diablo has made his fortune and retired 8-)
who is the next best engine builder ?
is anyone using a 62mm crank ?
At the moment I have a older polini kit and a 60mm crank all running fine with a 24/24 carb auto lube and a Sip clubman.
Also would I be able to use the electric start if I can find a starter, it had one but it was removed.
I would want to keep my present 13 mpl about 100 mpt.
TS1 and PX stay in the garage (future barn finds) out on the GTS 300 when I go out on a scooter.
I know I’ll get there and back

Try Sean Bradey @ Scooterotica... he's built me several Vespa engines in various. guises (polini, malossi, quattrini) over the last couple of years & I rate him very highly as an engine builder/tuner.[WINKING FACE]

The only problem is he is based somewhere near the arctic circle :lol: but labour charges must be cheaper up north 8-)

Shame on me :oops: :oops: I forgot Harry and he just rebuilt my 64mm crank, and I think he does 60+mm cranks.
