Building a TS1 engine. Finances dictate that I save, buy a part, six months later, buy another part. All i have so far are the TS1 kit, engine casing and electronic ignition. Eventually looking to run engine with a JL3. Looking to end up with an engine suited to motorway / rallies and town/commuting.Any help / recomendations greatly appreciated.

Indian GP200 is fairly cheap, with 19/46 gives 4.8 final drive should pull ok with jl3 ( this is what i run) :)

just bear in mind jonny what clutch youre gonna put in i,e 5 or 6 plate and wether you need the clutch sprocket (crown wheel )machining down to fit it all in or buy one already done .dont do it the wrong way round like some ppl :oops:
good luck .
or just run a 4 plate and suss better advice on springs so it dont slip .

Running a TS 1 225 on 16/47 with a LI 150 box (5.0), 5 plate clutch, JL 4, 35 TMX the gearing is spot on and she sits in 4th in the power no probs while others are changing up and down like mad men. 8-)
