Winky got it's new engine on the weekend....

Much thanks to Mike at CBB cause now I don't even notice the hills on the way home!

It's a 1776 with 040 heads (with 40x35mm valves), dual springs, a CBB stage 1 cam, kadrons, counterweighted crank, chromoly pushrods, mahle pistons and barrells...

I've got the engine my bus was crying out for... heaps of torque and at a guess 50% more power than before....

But it'll get us to the hospital quick!

Might have to give our baby the middle name CBB to thank them for putting the engine together so expertly!
