Thats a beautiful engine! I'm rebuilding one at the moment. Could you tell me where I can get new exhaust studs and the nuts thats used on them? The last ones I got from burton power aren't shiney like that. And where do you get those nice coloured bolts holding the thermostat housing on? And is the black paint smootherite too?

 

Cheers :D

Hello mate, the black paint is satin paint, we use halfords, we think its the best, cos it covers well, the bolts on the thermostat housing, & other non stressing places are aluminium, with cowled washers, we have used the same washers on the inlet & more stressed places, but with stainless bolts.. Demon tweeks is where we got all the anodised bolts & washers from.!!

The bolts for the manifold we got from Southern carburettors, in sth wimbledon..

I hope this has helped you. ??

Got my new block soaking in degreaser just now. One last question :D I see you havent painted the machined faces, like around the water pump. How do you stop them going all rusty? Laquer?

 

Cheers
