I have 3 + engines to build and will be looking for primary chains, but before going to too much expence is thete a way of measuring my old ones, I will definitely be looking for one set for the sandcast, the others might be in spec, any advice appreciated

Hi Pete
I'm sure someone will be along with a definitive answer shortly. In the mean time I have earmarked this for my own forthcoming rebuild. Its a bit long winded but gives you the idea.

In the great scheme of things on a full engine overhaul, a new set of primary chains is a very worthwhile investment.

I plan on replacing mine along with the tensioner....not because they are worn...but because it seems silly NOT to replace them while I have the cases apart. New bearings, rubbers and camchain/tensioner as well...again...because the prospect of starting the motor up first time to hear rattling chains doesn't appeal.

Could do it post free if you (1st dibs) or anyone else wants them plus I will offer a NOS (but no label) genuine racing -971 part camchain for an extra £20 (if I can find it :-[ )

I ended it early Pete as I was out and it would have just been our luck that it got bought by somebody else... it was on a £1 max. fees listing so knock that off too and the PayPal fees as long as you pay the missus on PayPal Friends and Family

Sounds like another of those wonderful Ash deals.
