  5. Day One, 21st October, 2014: Removed plugs and fired CRC down the bores, removed the pushrods and rockers, removed the intake and exhaust manifolds, removed the water pump, removed the oil filter, removed the vacuum system(?). Drained the oil, and got 4l of water out, 1l of oil and quite a bit of sludge Also, discovered the #1 cylinder was choc full with water ^Build Loggy enough for you? ^

  10. 4 months unless you guys want to pay for parts. 4-5 months to allow for my current financial issues
  11. Ill set that deal, and if you object, let me know. i mean, in total you'll all probably just be chipping in like 10 cents each that night
  12. i'm 70% sure it'll run again. how about i set a challenge? if i get it running, you guys owe me fish n chips and a beer, but if it never runs again, i pay for chch's monthly meet? i just like a challenge
  13. This is why you shouldn't trust dipsticks...
  14. From what i can see, its been ported n' polished (the intake ports are tapered and smooth, well smooth considering its been in the elements for 6 years ). So, diameters: Exhaust: Valve: 30.70mm Port: 27.50mm Intake: valve: 38.00mm Port (Entrance): 33.50mm Port (Main Pipe): 26.50mm Bore: 80.5mm (All measurements are +- 1.5mm)
