I haven’t updated in a while. It all got a bit dramatic after posting that picture. It blew a head gasket, and managed to push oil past the primary seal into the clutch. So not many more miles done after that picture.

However, why let that stop the fun…



Another block was taken to AC Dodd, this time it was taken out to +60 to allow the use of a CalverST Stg3 head, along with a crank regrind and rebuilt primary gear (again by AC). This will be fitted with ACs RS FI cam.

Currently the block is back with AC for oil squirter machining/installation - aim is to get to around 100bhp so some piston cooling should make that a reliable target.

There are already plans for a 3rd block forming….
