well i just found out u cant push the pistons trhough the bottom cause they dont fit u have to push em out the top!
Well im gonna get it bored to the max which i think is 40 thou? and balance and machine the crank, balance the flywheel, Machine the head down a bit and put bigger valves in it and thinking about coating them in porcelin, crow cam (Hot street cam for modified engines)Part Number 782509, a few other things but i also heard in a forum some one try to put twin timming chains on it? is that possible cause doesnt look like there is no room in there 4 two chains?
Also i found heaps of rust and crap in the water jackets when i pulled out the welsh plugs and at the moment im talking to a mechanic from work about getting it flushed in acid!
So yeah thats about it on the inside and other things on the outside like eg. fuel injection!
