Let us know if you need anything sent fast Brad.
Plenty of used parts up here.
No barrels, but heaps of lifters and cams(monsters).
What cam do you need/have?

i have rang and booked a constent supply of v's and red bull said they would be readily available from any corner shop if needed.so sleep won't be
the problem.
it's parts and machining time that will be the killer.
thanks for the offer dave i might need to talk to you alittle later so if you could pm me your number i will give you a buzz.
thanks guy's for the support.but considering what happened i am so not fased anymore about the little things that let us down,simply because we
haven't made the same mistake twice and we keep getting more and more out of this poor engine everytime.
so bring on the charge for warwick.i'm excited.
down sharon.

Bummer mate, might be time to consider a knock sensor. I can scrounge around for some info if that assists.

Mate I have to pull my engine apart again cause I forgot to tell Troy to put the spacers under the barrels. He got it all together and was trying to
get the rocker gear sorted and it was simply all wrong. He rang me and told me of the problem and it was then that i remembered.......
So guess what I am doing tomorrow??? One engine apart, reclean everything and assemble with barrell spacers this time!!
