RUNAMUCK Posted March 15, 2023 Author Share Posted March 15, 2023 I've owned retreads on Cavalino casings. People piss and moan about how terrible chynah tyres are today. Give me a ling long over a retread any day....... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igor Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Nothing wrong with retreads. Used to get three months out of retreaded cross plies on the front on my 1098 powered Clubman in the late 80's. Always bought new ones every third or fourth go round when they wouldn't retread my old casings anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost be a shame to have a big grind put on it. Almost...... What does the piston look like at the impact site? Did the valve guide get splayed by the lateral forces? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 GN guide looked fine till I took the seal off it and it was actually broken off at the top and held by oil tension 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
