phil read rep/honda britain restoration
haynes66:
i chose cox's in reading as they do allen millyards cases, so good recommendation. another reason is:- one son in uni in london and the other at oxford so sort of en route really. the Britain engine isnt getting the full treatment as i know it ran in 2013 or thereabouts, so the only parts for blasting will be the top end, by a company down pembrokeshire.

Hello haynes66,
An alternative source of vapor blasting, and other restoration services, is Griff's Reality Motorworks in Bristol.

They do excellent work at decent prices and might be more more conveniently located for you.
Cheers Geoff

thanks for that. i must say i am a little surprised at the work on these cases. as i'm removing all the masking tape, there is a fine pink dust in places and it does look as if the insides of the cases have had a blasting. it means a bit more washing down and blowing everything through with an air line. the bearing i removed also had fine grit in it. the finish is good though.

finally dragged myself out to the shed and made some progress. i'm waiting some assembly lube to keep the shell bearings in place, but that's the bottom end done, mostly.

Keep going Pete. I have not got anywhere this year with my projects
