There's still controversy in Laverda world. What does it say about head stud torques ?  Cam blocks have head studs going through them. One side of the alloy block has a 9mm stud - about 30ft/lb - the other side has an 8mm - about 18ft/lb. It's very easy to break a cam block if you fuck it up.

Some editions I hear say 30 or so ft/lb both sides.....the 9's are through studs to the top case. The 8's are short head to barrel studs.

Haha, I've had all the bits to assemble the engine for years.


Just got distracted with a couple of Harley builds, a goldwing build, h1 resto, and a gt550 rebuild in the interim.

Hopefully get back into this in a few months! 

Watch this space.
