Yes..be confident Nick. you know you can do it mate. Sing to it as you are putting it in and it will never let you down again. (knowing that its got to put up with you singing again) :tongue: :rofl:

Looking good so far Nick ;)

 

Steve :)

Don't worry mate, we understand how 'special' you are ! Still, needs must as they say .... ;)

I cannot see why not, but make sure you get a reputable engine shop to do the rebore, balance the crank and match the bearing shells. I personally would get them to incert the pistons and rings into the barrels for you, with the rods attached to the pistons. Then build top to bottom instead off the other way round.

 

Your going to need a good engine stand. Partco had some nice heavy duty stands for about £40 not long back.

 

Just remember to take your time and ensure that you keep every thing spotlessely clean are the smallest bit of crap can ruin a barrel or a shell bearing.

It better work. You owe me a rematch. lol
