Engine refresh
Posted: Wed Oct 27, 2010 3:39 pm
I'm treating my engine to a refresh for next year, so...
new pistons/rings
con rod bearings/nuts/bolts
crankshaft bearings
camchain
I believe the engine is an H model, on stripping found the 1107 thinner webbed rods.
I intend to rebuild with 1208 rods I have on a spare crank, and the polished H crank from my orginal race engine.
I obviously have a crankcase number, but for piece of mind are all these parts identical between H and L models especially the pistons?
The engine I'm rebuilding came with the low compression pistons with the rectangle crown rather than the 4 valve cut outs, I ran the engine wit some spare pistons I had laying around but don't want to buy new low compression pistons. Is there a particular model to avoid or was this from an import?
Cheers,
Wes
