1.9 to 2.1

Post by DoubleOSeven »

My neighbour is upgrading and wants a new engine build thread to be seen here. Itchy, SilverB et al, I'll need your advice no doubt at some point.

I'm also looking at Honda C90's for a custom build...which is all new to me. A parallel build, if you will. Shed and parts ready :)

You're gonna need a bigger box. ;-)
So do you have all the required bits already (crank, cam, pistons, rod bolts etc)? Shout up if you're short of owt.

Good luck with the engine build - here's a C90 I've seen at the Mayday run in Hastings:
