welllll !!!
turns out when it warmed up a bit and i could properly test that the 145 mains where too lean !

fitted 155 mains now and its good real good fitted tthe 25mm stacks too cool.

this thing is moving !

ive got cromoly pushrods and ive changed the way im setting them as well they were real noisey set so i could just turn them at tdc but i had noticed that as no1 was at tdc no2 inlet would be loose again .

now as i understand it this is because tdc isnt necersarily the heal of the cam lobe and we have to find the sweet spot so to speak of the cam and set the valves there .

im really thinking about saying sod it and just setting them hot as well a hot setting of 0.15mm on the sweet spot on the cam the heel .

since tightning the clearance on my cam its quieter when fully warm also mind it pops and farts now for 30 secs when cold in the mornings

the slight shake i had is gone thank god .

im loveing every minute of driveing this thing.
