550/650 shims.

Post by fossie » Sat Apr 29, 2017 1:06 pm

We have a good selection of shims in the club......well it was a good selection but now all the lesser sizes are swapped so we need new stock. From 195 up to 235 . Have any of you wonderful people out there got some hanging about?

I have mentioned this in project section but posted here as it may gain a broader audience.......Not suggesting that larger people go on this section... ;) .....I'll stop digging .......shall I? :oops:

Turns out we are going to need 2x exhaust valves , or a newer head if anyone has such a thing .
The head is for a 650 .....not a manquin before you ask.

i may have a spare head in the shed, no guarantees, but since ive tidied up at least i know which pile of bits to look in. tbh i neeed the 650 finished if only so i can get shot of the rest of the spares that camee with it, and iirc fossie, theey cam from you, so, under the ancient law of 'what goes arround comes arround' it looks like you might be 'getting your own back' lol. i will go down the shed now for a fiddle with a big german with two huge sticky out appendages, but whilst there i will seek out surplus 650 stuff.
