![]() 431 forum posts 252 photos | Jason Thanks for your reply Jason. The reason I'm looking is I've been given a set of plans and part machined castings but the carb and flywheel castings are missing. I guess it will be fabrication time. The crank case, main bearings, cylinder, liner, con rod, and crank are all finished, and the machining appears to be of a high standard. The only problem is the crank appears to be slightly out of true and will require, I think, some judicious straightening. John |
