thanks julie i saw the ad for IMD and wondered if a uk supplier would be best, not much difference in price. Any recommended place to do rebores in lincs?
So i ordered a set of pistons from a UK based company IMD pistons, arrived quickly and seem to be decent quality. Took them and the barrels to Trigger and Julies for a rebore, and had a look at the £1000 sohc project, looking good! Yesterday i thought i would check out the head and regrind the valves, but unfortunately noticed that one of the valve guides was loose in the head, and the other exhaust valves seem to have a lot of play. Inlets seem to have no play so hoping they are ok. Not sure if i can do this job myself so might have to ask Graham to help!
Progress a bit slow at the moment but have had the rebore done by Trigger and just started the rebuild of the top end. One job i am finding tricky is putting the circlips on the pistons, they are the stupid wire type, does anyone have any tips?
