Hi Burgundyben, thanks for your interest in the Lion rebuild, I have got a lot done, although it doesn’t look that different.
The water jackets have been hot pressure tested with the help of Chris Williams and are leak free, cylinders honed, pistons ordered, crank stripped, rebuilt and pressure tested, con-rod assemblies stripped, checked and rebuilt, timing case stripped, checked and rebuilt, I will be cutting the valve seats and building up the heads in the next couple of weeks.
Time is now being put into the carrier which will have the controls, tanks and radiators.
Andy
Looking very good!
I’m in the middle of rebuilding a flat 6 air cooled Porsche engine, if it runs and is oil tight I’ll be very proud, you should be the same.
Who is making the pistons?
