New/different wheels?

I guess a different/new interior would make for a change :shifty:

Never tried, looks a pain in the arse!!

You've gotta remove the tappets on the 998 haven't you?

May as well pull the lump or aquire a donor lump and swap em out?

dident go into detail about it,

''Hello, thanks for the enquiry, we don't have a small bore A series rod on the books as there hasn't been the need for them in the past. We are quite willing to design and supply them but the minimum order qty has to be 4 engine sets to cover design time.

If you can meet this volume please let us know

Regards

John''

Waiting for a decent crank to come on ebay, pref billet to!
