It also would help to learn from the mistakes ya'll (from Texas) made. So whip up some plans and sell them to me.

Thanks,

Drawings? you realise we write with a tig torch

Really its quite simple to work out what goes where and what needs modding, No, honestly Ive been trying since we got it running to convince folks its doable for not very much cost.

We kept the stud spacing as T4 and modded the heads and camboxes.
The head oil returns go into the deep sump.

You're lucky in that you can get the bits together and mail me, we didn't have that luxury.

The crank drive was machined to adapt the T4 taper which went to 2 polo crank sprockets, just a simple top hat design.
We had to buy the bits and make them fit together ,not knowing it would work.

Just go buy your carrera 2 twin plug heads and 2 cam boxes, with cams and take some measurements.
Ill always be here for advice.
