Its engine building time so I dug out the stuff for the roadster lump. They make it really easy in the states by packaging up whatever you want as a complete ready to go matched set up. It really only leaves boring the block and a balance job. The kit i got is forged crank, 10.5 forged pistons, forged eagle I beam rods ,hp oil pump , timing gear set to do away with the chains and sprocket, all the studs and gaskets, pushrods roller tip rockers, hd bearings and tons of small bits and bobs like core plugs. All this comes in at less money than i spent reconditioning a poxy vw diesel engine.
