a bit more
cylinder head cover of


at first site all looks good, when i removed the cams 1 of the bearingcaps had som blue colloring on it and there where some with marks on them, and where the camshaft meets the bearing there where some marks on them
the cams have been out before because the bearingcaps where marked, but when they refitted them they where possisioned the wrong way, i suspect this is the reason for the faults, and bad oil ofcourse

the bores and tops of the pistons look good imo

Nice, love st brakes , also love the colour
but if you're planning on doing a rear disk conversion you have to know somebody at Goca (MOT in Belgium) because it's illegal to do that
Stupid laws in Belgium

[dj_yd]

thanks for the repley

i'm not going to use rear disks, they are not mot proof in belgium, same as the front disks.
