Well after much grief and stress I do at least finally have what I paid for...




















must admit to being relieved its finally here, as I was beginning to doubt it even existed..... All the parts I paid for are in it so at least they where true to there word on that front. But the time scale just blow my mind, so there customer service needs work. Anyway onward and upwards now

Would love to say yes but to busy building a Customer 962 at present, but the temptation now might be to great to get some work done on my car.....

Here's some billet 6061 **** on the 962, had to design and build a extension piece to push the engine froward away from the Transaxle so made a Feature of it.....

Clive, you could at least have counter-sunk the bolts so they didn't stick out! Only joking mate. Stunning work as ever!

So tried to progress the motor today, but seems I'm taking the heads apart now as I have to machine the old rocker mountings down for the new Crower rockers.... This I hadn't planned on, but oh well that's life not to great a hardship. Measured them the way they say in the info sheet seems I'm 0.670" to low for now at the valve.... Did a little Cad sim even with the 6deg difference between the platform and the valve that's still 0.0672" to machine of the mounts.... even the pushrod checker I had was wrong had a cup on one end DOH....
