Title: two plus years on the stand.... a SINGLE PORT?
Post by: Jim Ratto on March 14, 2009, 00:00:40 am
finally made some headway on Sheepster speedster today. Since we're using stock VW rods (not stroker trimmed) I had to massage the roof of case a little today. Got cam dialed in, and did a quick and dirty Bill Fisher/Kay Sissell port smoothing.

enough for today

getting closer... geometry is set, CR is set, valve to piston is set (we got .515" @ valve with light checking spring), pushrod length is set... even got some valve springs in ans height set.

We're getting there. Sheep, we going to run this on Holleran's dyno?
