Okay I ended up with 26 inch slicks. Just purchased some close ratio 3rd and fourth gears hopefully get them put in this month. 1.56 and 1.17. But the real question I have is about rear alignment. I have 1/16 inch toe out. Question please answer. My rear camber is + 1 on left side and +2.25 on the right side is this acceptable. I went through the trouble to flip my control arms and narrow them almost 1 inch to getvrid of negative camber I also installed 28 mm torsion bars and adjustable spring plates. Everything is coming along nicely. I also built a clutch management device for clutch pedal.

No experience with the heads, but I do run CB wedgeports with an engle FK87 and 1.4 scat rockers (measure 1.5) and I love that combination. When I had a nicer street gearbox (close, but not really close ratio) it was lovely on the street.

Got these on a trade not sure what to do with them yet so they are available for now. They have been welded by the previous owner but not finished. As far as porting them or adding more material.  I can send many more detailed pictures please ask

Well, it is not always going as planned. Again it is leaking oil between the head and cylinderbarrel at the 1/2 side of the engine. Sad 3/4 side is dry.
The first kilometers looked everything ok and there were no leaks and engine runs good, but after some driving the engine didn't run properly.

Thinking what might be wrong:
- The seating of the head or barrel that is not flat. But it is leaking oil after say 100 kilometers so if it was this it should be leaking from the first start of engine.
- Could it be the headstuds that came loose? Case has new M10 CSP studs but no casesavers. Torqued the nuts to spec.




Going to check the 4 bottom studs if they are still at the right torque. For the upper ones the engine has to be out, can it blindfolded now Grin
