When I was under there taking the wheelie bars off, it was a little moist... It looked like oil coming from the tapper cover gasket though. I didn't
think to Smell it. Good point Dave, more boost will do that.

Hey guy's, just a quick update. I've ordered a brand new set of cnc ported cb performance street eliminator's today which will be going straight to
DB for cc's ect...
I have also ordered a set of raceware studs to help try and keep these bad boys in place.
It should all be here in the next couple of weeks then off to the Dyno and a track session before Sydney. I'll keep ya's posted.
Cheers Dave!

Thanks for posting those pics Dave!
I will be picking these bad boys up on Monday and fitting them next week. Going to have to port the manifolds a bit but should go on relitively easily
apart from that. I will be fitting the 10mm Raceware studs in the meantime.
Booked on the dyno 14th june then going to go to a t&t 22nd june if all goes well..... Then next stop Sydney Mo Fo's!!!

Picking up my motor from DB today hopefully. My work is really busy until we leave for Sydney so I had him fit my heads, set up my rockers and make
some new berg pushrods for me this week.
Looking good for Dyno Friday then willow Saturday then Sydney a week after.
Cheers Dave!

Tharrr she blows.... friggen sweet, top quality job by Dave Butler on this one. This is the greatest chance we've had at getting these heads to seal.
New Raceware studs are now fitted and of coarse my new heads. Just got to fit the manifolds and slide it on in then off to Matty (dyno) 8.30 Friday
morning... Wish me luck!
Cheers Dave!
