I think you also have a stainless one somewhere

So do I, I've found the top one, I have the axle ones plus the brake hub special bolt. Plenty of time to slip it in when I find it. As my build progresses I have fewer boxes to search.
I plan to do an audit of my parts boxes over the next few days to reflect what I have recently fitted as well as reduce some of the boxes. Good organisation saves time especially wasted time looking for things that might not exist.
Updated:- Found the SS bottom rear engine spacer. ;D ;D ;D

I'll own up I misread the picture in the parts book -the rear tube where the stand pivot shaft is looks as though it was part of the spacer!
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
A little bit of progress today - I've fitted the pistons without drama.
- no lost circlips.
Next up is fitting the block I'm okay with the pistons just need to work out how the cam chain tensioner fits first. I'm presently cleaning up the two oil restrictors in the ultra sound cleaner. I have the 4 cylinder bottom O- rings & bottom gasket at the ready.
In my head I do not fully understand the placing of the fixed blade the manual should help.
Any tips welcome.
