All cross checked and ordered will David Silver. I am now a hundred and fifty quid lighter 😖😳 should be here in about a week. Originality is not cheap. Thankfully, having the cajones to turn the spanners myself is free. Not everyone's cup of tea to get this far into a rebuild though.

That's the problem I've had with CMS twice now, got one of two stock alerted shells, then zero of the stock alerted shells the next time. Originality certainly is not cheap, that's why I try to buy the occasional Engine item on a good price basis, at the moment they probably hold their value better than cash in the bank I would speculated.

The big clean up has begun prior to the big build ! I have a question. Which way around on the crank should the con rods fit ? There is a particular way I am certain, but can find bugger all in the book about it....

Yes, pictures show rod coding very clearly, across the rod to cap interface, shell cut outs being together.
Why an oil hole at all ?
