Time for another update.
My Engine is now completed and will be picking it up from the engine builder some time this week if i can find the time.
I ended up shelving my Venolia pistons as didn't want to run the clearances that they specified and also wanted to drop the comp at little, CP pistons have gone in in their place.
Also didnt go with the copper gasket just a cometic MLS.
Heads ported, new tomei cams and springs, new guides also but reused the standard valves.
I can't belive this is taking so long but at least it is progressing. I just hope i'm back on the road by christmas.
