I need to come to that shed for motivation.

Call me if you still want that stuff, its already for ya.
Sounds great (Well it will with a cam) :) I am going to put a little Fertilizer in the Aussie Bob. Hence the engine out :)


Yes I do, and I dug out those boards for you too! Just resting at home after surgery :(

I'm surprised this one needs a reco, seeing as the motor got reco-ed some 20,000 miles ago..

Cal, when the timing gear went and the new steel gear was fitted, the guy tried to fit the crank cog as well. To get the old gear off the crank, a lot of heat was applied. I guess the heat transfered along the crank and the bearings didn't like it :(

Anyway, we will sort it.

You weren't kidding on the phone when you said you pulled a few greys out that day.

I have also sent you a PM re grey motors
