SLW42 Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Mad progress gav, have you wound the motor over yet? To make sure nothing is gonna foul on anything in the motor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJM85 Posted September 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Yeah man. She turns clean and smooth. Timing is spot on. Dad helped me with that. The dizzy dropped in and we realised it was a tooth forward when we lined up the timing marks and the rotor button was ahead of the #1 cap terminal instead of behind. I'm beaming with confidence.

GJM85 Posted September 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) Got the holden lifter in yesterday. We worked out the pushrod length with the venier caliper. Not sure on the overall length of a 4k pushrod they need to be cut down 31mm. We tried on one rod by hacksawing it down then milling the pushrod ball out of the off-cut. They appear to be spot welded in..... They will all be cut down, oxy heated, ends pressed in and then silver solded. Sweet as. Today, I went past Moss Street so I stopped in to Autobarn and I ordered a redline twin dcoe manifold and a BBR clutch. Sweet. Then I dash directly over the road to Right Price Exausts and enquired about some extractors. They just so happened to have a set of Hurricane short 4-1 extractors on shelf. New old stock, so they are a little scratched up, but that means 25% off!!! Perfecty Sweet! Edited September 7, 2010 by GJM85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
