which engine case would suit a 1775 twin carb
after this oil leak appeared , im seriously thinking of purchasing a engine kit and case and doing a transplant.
Which brand of case would be better suited for mild performance??
Where can i get a case saved ready machined for 90.5 mm case from????

Either a genuine German dual relief case in good condition or a new Auto Linea alloy case.
Steer clear of Mexican or Brazil (not sure which) magnesium cases, their soft as butter.

And what do you base this on??
The new mag brazilian cases are fine, never had a problem with one, I would only use an alloy case on a big stroker making big power.
