hello peps didnt get to peppercorn engine went pop.. found out that i wasnt getting oil to gudgen pin on no1 piston.. dry as a bone and the pin was stuck fast in the piston. and blue..gathering it got hot lol.
Turns out also that i had been sold a 1500sp fan rather than a 1600tp so that dodnt help either.. engine rebuilt but having probs with push rod tubes just cant get them to seal..
Im thinking top end strip down again and get some quality gaskets rather than repos.. anyone else had this problem? how did u solve it?
Just thought id keep u posted. more pics to come soon.
hello peeps havent been on for a while.. just an up date... we never made it to north weld a push rod tube desided it didnt like being in the sealed position so leeked!
so..full set of sprung loaded push rod tubes problem solved. also gone back to a 34 pict sigle carb set up on a standard 1641 engine..
well on that note hope to see u all next year some time first one for us will be big bang i would think.
