1978 SOHC F2 Engine casings

(1/3) > >>

Simon:
Hi I am doing a rebuild (my first) of a 1978 F2 SOHC engine and I've come across a bit of a disaster. When I dismantled the engine and had the crankcase cleaned up it was clear that casing is damaged around where the kick start spindle is located. Basically this section of the casing is broken off.

Anyone have any ideas? Is there anywhere I can get a new (or secondhand) crankcase and do I have to replace all of the engine casing or can I match a bottom end of a crankcase from engine to the top end of another crankcase. Or is there anyone who does repairs to crankcases (if that's possible even).

I would appreciate any help!!

mick:
Do you have any photos of the casings and damage?

Bryanj:
Casings have to go in pairs, pics of damage would help

JonnyB:
If you're interested I have a load of F2 spares, basically a complete F2 less the front end, it's ready stripped (un started project) you're welcome to make me an offer - PM me if your interested

Simon:
Hi All thanks for your help.

I will photograph the damage and post the picture this afternoon.

JohnnB thanks for your offer, I will be in touch about that.
