So we worked pretty hard last week and got it running. the redline lincagge kit was junk the lynx manifold even worse. but is sorted now and sounds pretty tough. just finishing touches now and some more fiddling around with the carbies to do.

When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Havn't shared much in a while. Thought I would share a quick video of my cam and a pic of the new radiator.
Snapped and bent the studs in the head recently so its out of action for a while and has been replaced with the old motor to get around in. Also found out that the jets and chokes in the carbies I bought for the 202, which where recommended are all wrong. So I need to buy the correct ones which isn't going to be cheap. but that's once I can find someone who really knows there webers. which is becoming difficult. So all in all, troubles but hopefully finish it soon.
