Now Al Diablo has made his fortune and retired
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.

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

but labour charges must be cheaper up north

Shame on me

I forgot Harry and he just rebuilt my 64mm crank, and I think he does 60+mm cranks.
