Good on ya Westi......for going down on Stocko this morning. Humble pie never tasted so good. The effort it takes to get a car built/rebuilt/updated
is absolutely enormous, in time, effort and cost (both actual cost and cost to your family, business, body and drug supplier )
Cudos to you buddy

Cheers matty,
I can't say I did it all on my own ,but I did .lol
Big effort though.
Well worth it.. Tune still isn't 100 per cent but man it's sounds tuff.
Thought we had an oil pressure problem. But then realized the needle was on the other side of the pin. Opps.
Got some pressure. And then some. Lucky I set the tolerances alittle losser than normal.
I think humpty video'd it .
Not sure .
I will keep you all posted as I should be dumping later .
down sharon.

Engine looks great. The TF1 case has a lot to answer for. I built an engine with one years ago in the USA. didnt like the measurements i was getting
on the mains. And its heavy as shit.
This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

I wouldn't recommend one to anyone.
Stick to the bubble top cb . Cheap easy and no hassles.
But when you need a big cam to spin without hitting the crank I quess there isn't to many choices.
So it will do.
It's not as heavy as the bubble top.
Well see how she goes .

Great to catch up on the weekend Brad... The car sounded awesome!.... I'm sure once you have a little time with the beast, hunting down the minor
gremlins, this thing will be an animal.
Also good to catch up with Henry and Troy at the shop.... Always great to chat to those guys.
PS:.... Cheers for the very tasty beers!

everyone is welcome at my shop humpty even the westerners.hopefully everyone knows that.
and yes it was good to catch up and talk shit.i love a good yarn.
we should keep that in mind when events come up,do a shop hop like they do in the states.
anyone is welcome to drop in and have a look,
haven't touch the shitter this week,had to buy a few oil line adapters and stuff to get the oil pressure down.oil pressure was alittle to high.
all sorted now though,well nearly anyway.
hopefully get it on the dyno this weekend if all goes well.
we are going to do some test's at different rpm to see how much oil is needed at different rpm.and also see how long it takes for the oil to get back
down to the sump pick up.
sounds technical,but not realy.
a bucket of oil with the litres marked on the side and a hose that runs from the pick up into the engine.
should be interesting.if the fatman shows up,i'll get him to take some picks.
down sharon.

just got my head around the dyno.fuck me.
first pull was 179hp 4400rpm.wow.but we have run out off fuel,so we will have to wait until tommorrow,we used up to much fuel trying to work out the
dyno.
gota go back through it tommorrow and make sure all is good and start tunning.and get more fuel.
yipee.
down sharon.
