P.M. sent!

Well, my mate welded the head (stunning job, although I think I am now forever in his debt!) and after taking the opportunity to take off the quietening gears, make the cams adjustable, go total loss, raise the compression and a light port fettle I fired the little baby up this morning.
Yay! Sounds lovely, quite crisp and the sound of the valves hitting the pistons isn't TOO loud.
(that's a joke BTW!).
Guess what? As soon as it had run it for a bit I drained the water out........
Yours,
A VERY happy bunny

I don't find your joke in the least bit amusing my good man. I've a mind to challenge you to handbags at dawn for your flippancy.

The luck you've had recently Greg the likelyhood is that the strap would snap mate!
How are your 600 plans going?
