the welds are about as good as a sieve for being air tight and i warped the flange so it was heated up and bolted flat to the head to cool it. then ill reweld it tomorrow when i check it.
also will be picking up an XE block bored to 86.5, freshly ground crank next week so dont have to save up to get mine bored out etc...happy days!!
off to reweld the manifold...and fit the plating kit. but im not sure where they all go lol
looking good bub
slowly getting there :thumb:
That rubber pipes looks like socks from that V6 boot :D
got my nice new XE block delivered today bored out to 86.5mm with a 0.25mm oversized crank. spanking :d just need a set of bearings, 1 piston and thats the bottom end finished :d top end only needs a few more bits to finish it off but ive gone and bought another set of wheels so ill have to wait till they sell before i buy more stuff
Lovely build! You know by the way that you have you're carbs backwards on the manifold?
they are? i thought the butterfly was on the ouside
edit.
so i do....whoopsydoodle. best measure them up again and sort out the silicone hosing.
well the spacing between the different carbs will be the same, only the diameter will not fit i guess.
