I have been looking at the heads and valves. Valve angles have been re-cut to proper angles and I'm replacing all the exhaust valves to be safe. Heads getting some clean up and work to the combustion chambers. Next I will have to source 90.5mm rings and hoping to re assemble the engine by the weekend.

Playing around with Rocker geometry on the 1.25:1 ratio rockers to determine spacing and push rod length for my 1776. Hope to get it set up properly and get her running even better! :)

Played in the dunes today and took 2 extra condensors with to avoid disappointment like last time. Well I used up both spares and was towed out again.
Looks like Flat Four Racing gonna see me shortly for a electronic setup!
