    Forgot to update this.

    I'm really struggling. My condition has expanded I guess you'd say and I've struggled even in the stupid mild Tassie summer to achieve fuck all.



    The chook cooker is finished and she rotates under her own power. I havnt been able to get the last bits and pieces off the shell to get cracking.

    I know it's just sooking. But it really bugs me that I achieve nothing with my time.

    Managed to weld up bendy boy.

    It's tight fitting the 2.5 inch exhaust in the cradle. I didn't really plan it too well lol but I'll hard mount this section of the exhaust to limit any bashing and crashing

    I was keen on some sneaky blockies after getting the engine started last Friday.....


    Turns out I borked something in the clutch assembly, so she is now in a very sad state of disrepair...

    I also managed to fucking stab the rear tail light while trying to manoeuvre her round the yard. Not a great couple days. Also crunched the fuck out of the sills on the ramps trying to get off with the starter motor. Lol. The joys of working alone I guess.

    Hopefully its something simple in the clutch. Best bet so far is I fucked the throwout bearing clips to the fork. #shrugs

    But its awfully close

    Took the chance to sort out a small coolant t leak at the back of the head.

    Wasnt sure if it was the gasket or the welds, so spooged em both #shrugs.

    I was having lots of trouble with timing. I did some learning and some figuring outs, and made a piston stop to determine tdc. Then made my own timing markers for the engine. With this I figured out my timing was 180 degree out.

    Played with the adap and......

    Nothing. Fuckshitfuck. Timing was spot on, but wouldn't fire.

    Another 3am thought woke me up. And I started checking cam timing etc. (This is the first time I've used a timing gun lol) turns out I had got the crank timing perfect, but the cam was 180 out.

    So went the other way with the adap 180 change (so back 360 ) and she fired first go.

    Tune is for a blacktop, so not exactly purring. The throttles are a little sticky right at the bottom of the closure, so it wants to idle at 2g... manually prop it back and it holds 800 nicely.

    Im waiting on a wideband setup so I can see how bad the fuelling is (the eyes sting a bit in the shed after its been running lol) and had been keen for a sneaky lap of the block....

    But as mentioned, was unable to select gears.
