It will be good to know where the motor is at in every department, Pete. Be able to thrash it with confidence then!!
Must me Murphy's idea that things have a nasty habit of wearing out.. annoying ...
I am looking forward to hearing it back on full song
Think that will be the extra HP you'll need to run the 10's LOL getting your crack polished hehehehehe
Even the car detailer has to clean inside and out LOL
Sounds like it was a very good time to pull the engine down mate. Could have got nasty if left any longer!!

I have come up with a plan ! Looser has to wear A PINK shirt for the week-end . We race in qualifiering ,then looser becomes Mr Pink !!!!!!
sounds a bold statement after Westi's latest dyno figures Pete!!
have you been doing some headwork whilst your motor is apart, or just secretly like the idea of being Mr Pink for the weekend🙂
this i can't wait for especially as we are all pitted together!!

First job was to clearance the clutch rivets 0.5mm where they were hitting the FW bolts.
The clutch disc was straightened so the pads were flat.
Then the FW was surfaced flat, and FW bolt heads clearanced about 0.75mm.
The clutch shoe needed to be turned flat, and then ground.
It was not flat and needed about 0.5mm off to be flat.
Once everything was machined,
the assembly was bolted to the FW,
and finger height observed.
The fingers must be ever so slightly up hill.
I use a ball bearing here on the flat portion of the fingers to show what I mean.
A simple measurement shows these are about 0.5mm safe.
If there was a new disc, and std FW depth,
this clutch would have been over centre and low on clamp pressure.
So that is correct,
These pressure plates are out of tolerance from brand new.
Also made a bronze bush to allow maximum bearing travel.
Where did those "model Hands" go to?!

I reckon a Wasser boxer or CB case could take a roller with some work.
