So the poor old A2 is going to be broken up, the motor is heading for a Mag2 frame and some of the better bits will be used on the A1 project.

Last photo till it goes into the shed for stripping. :axe

The motor in the A2 is sound but is an old smoker, so needs a top-end rebuild anyway, but the newly acquired A1 has a sweet rebuilt engine, and I like that its older.
The A2 isn't dead, its just that I need its engine for the Harris, if I find another motor before the end of the dry build then it will go back together again later.
I've been promised a good MkII bottom-end and stuff so that could be an option, but would need yet another doner!

Bit of both I think, probably ZX9RC conventionals, 6R swinger with over brace, ZZR wheels and 10R tail, because that's what I've got so far.

When I get going I'll start a photo thread.

can't believe I'm writing this but I think you should keep that as it is and get another engine to put in the Harris.

Harry Im normally for chopping up anything but your Zed is so nice to start with.... Seeing as your only using the motor would it just be a good idea to buy another engine :idea:
