Saw higher fifth for the gearbox….. so are you going 1000cc barrels and pistons?
Bigger valve heads too?

Looking good so far…I cannot wait to see the finished article.

Good day today,
Picked up the rest of the powder coat from Bourne in Birmingham.
Super speedy,quality service as always.
I’ll hold my hands up,it was all done at the same time as the rest of it but in a rush I gave them the wrong ral code.(the swatch I looked at online was a lot darker than the end result ,ooooopps)
So the blue had to be redone.
