Featured Daytona 500

And he's waving to me

 

Finished stripping the gearbox to day and found the main shaft had tried to punch its way out the box :-( prepped the bits ready to go off for machine work and stripped the spare head for welding and machine work. Head has a crack and req all valve seats n guides replacing along with both exhaust ports being welded and threaded for new stubs.

 

Try this number 313-977-0464 its Graham in sylvan lake

 

Quite poss an excited hammer user might have contributed but if puller is being used correctly it wouldn't put any pressure on bearing/clip. The hammer and its various colleagues are the biggest cause of engine butchery lol.

 

Have spent ages cleaning this lot up and still not finished :-(

 

I have just fitted my mop to a wall bracket to make life easier really need a bigger one now so i'm hoping a few more jobs will pay for a decent one

 

Lol, i only use yamabond or welseal on crankcase halves and gaskets with a smear of grease on the rest as i find this works best.

 

Some nice rechromed original parts for all you Magpies

 

Yes Dorsetware are only 6 miles from me and rushed them through in less than 2 weeks for me

 

Going slow at the mo, had to get some parts online for the 500 Daytona engine rebuild as the local shops are shut sadly, still waiting on barrels crank and head to come back. Usual high quality pics lol.

 

Relaxing day today cleaning the last few parts and fitted new kickstart pawl and needle roller ready for rebuild.
