cleaned the carbs yesterday, then replaced all the jets screws gaskets needles, to recondition the carbs, then tried to fit them, except they wouldnt fit, they did fit on my dry build, but when i rebuilt the engine i fitted reedblock spacers, with the angle of the engine it reduced the space between the fuel tank and the carbs. so i got the carb tops in the lathe and made them shorter, bent the cable tubes a bit more, repostioned the tank slightly higher up,and now they fit, i just need rubber fuel lines with a 90 degree bend now, to connect the carbs to the vacumn fuel tap, i also had to make a new balance tube to link the two carbs together.

Stunning

Amazing very tallented

That is truly impressive, I could stare at the engineering and paint for hours

Brilliant work. I wish I had half that skill.

Some update photo's from today:









It doesn't get much sexier than that

That is cooler than the frozen wastes of the Tundra, love it

Todays update:

Nice is that a Zip front wheel? I have one in mine with the calliper on the same side and was wondering what you were doing for a speedo drive (if you are fitting one) as it will run backwards...at least mine does
