Small update, all parts aquired.. just waiting for block, flywheel & cyl head to come back from machine shop.  Got hold of a brand new set of genuine smallport pistons.   More to come soon ;-)

Whilst waiting for some machine parts to come back, thought I'd a least make it a little nicer to look at when its finally rebuilt. BEFORE:  AFTER a few coats of etching primmer & heat proof paint.

I use etching primmer followed with VHT heat proof caliper enamel.

Got a few parts back, just waiting to clear some room as to start this smallport rebuild. Got all parts now, so a few weeks this one should be up and running :-) Ah... maybe a little longer, my mate has to completely rewire so it takes the smallport engine.  (1)(1).jpg) Found out that Im a flywheel & pressure plate short on this build....will need to source one & have it machined. More to come.

Ok, quick update: Got a 'sandwich plate' in the end, installed machined flywheel, new exedy clutch plate & throw out bearing.  I had to source a spacer exhaust flange otherwise the aftermarket extractors were failing on the starter motor. The extra flange gave it an 8mm clearance gap ;-)  Engine complete with gearbox, just need to have the body harness loom slightly altered to suit the 4age smallport engine & its ready for installation.

Small update: mechanically all finished, just gotta get the air re-gassed, take down to local exhaust shop for some slight pipe fabrication & it should be already to start the run in process! Thanks to my mate 'Rob' who did all the wiring conversion and assist throughout the whole process π. Once it comes back from the exhaust shop, a full interior / exterior detail & it should be sweet!      Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
