Yes - in my opinion they're equal -

You probably won't get the crank lightened either
I might pop over to yours then .... on my slow 400cc 400

You jammy bugger! £36 for the full set, when all the others on the bay are buy it now @ £110 plus!!
You're welcome to pop down and borrow the compressor, may even let you take it away...

While you're here, would there be any other tools you are short of?

An engine stand - it's one of those things I'd like one day but have little use for it when it's not being used.
I only have the inlets to do so I recon an hour or so. I don't trust the valve stem seals though

I have an engine stand too, but it's currently got a 2 litre pinto stuck on it!
PM incoming.

Thanks to Alex lending me his valve compresser I've spent a blissful half hour installing the inlet valves.
Next job is to drop the cams on and sort out the valve tollerances.
I got another 3HE crank off the bay and sent it to BDK so they can machine the 4JH flywheel to fit. They needed a few dimensions - I'll sort out the drawing to show the Frankenseal and the crankcase boss positions. I'll give BDK a shout and see where they are with it.
I've also got some new brakelines for the Bimota which need fitting.

I managed to sort out the Valve tollerances ... but it seemed I kept getting it wrong. I needed to stop it all and then come back to it and do it all again.
So now I can I slap the head on.

If they are the same as the 3tj, then I should have a brace in the garage.
I'll have a look this evening.
