i knew a guy years ago that had a mental grey had all sorts of sh!t from other engines in it, i'll ask if he happens to still have it he's a hoarder but sells stuff and unless it's sold quite possibly still does have it, whether he can get to it if he does though is another completely different storyHarv wrote: Fri Jul 11, 2025 12:43 pm

All good - I really don't need another crank. I reckon by the time you found one, and someone who knew how to machine it then the costs would not be that much less than either a well-girdled standard one.
