HOLY SHIT!!

twin 40s rock.
just got them running as i was about to give up completely.
greattt!

got an oil leak from the gasket-pasted joint between the cylinder head and the cam housing that just wont seal tho.

anybody else had a similar problem, and could the head be warped??

cheers

maybe ur bottom end is breathing heavy? mind u it shud pop the rocker gasket 1st!
bit of a bugger that 1 as u haveto take head bolts off!

Check the inlet manifold - I seem to remember that a bit off the inlet manifld fouls the cam housing? I had to cut a bit off when i did it?

Me too cornish, there great :)

The noise, the power, the fuel consumption...do'h! It's all worth it though :)

Have fun with them MrTim, I do :lol:

Another fan here too!! I don't think the fuel consumption is that bad either, not unless you nail it everywhere, which is very tempting from the sound they make!!!! Best conversion I have done yet, but isn't as simple as some might think.
