Aye up !
Sent my engine off for overhaul - 1980 60 odd thousand miles, this is what need doing according to the feedback:
re-shelling the cams
grinding in valves with new stem seals
full gasket set (genuine)
ignition system missing- please advise
new cam chain
new plastic wheel for double wheel chain guide
tensioner/chain guide damper rubbers
repair 1x starter motor bolt(snapped)
1x main crank retaining bolt snapped on disassembly-easy fix
hone the bores
re-ring pistons
skim head
paint cases
the gear box is mint as you predicted-amazing.
Ignition is sat on a shelf in my shed, I think an alternator winding is duff as well and awaiting feedback from that.
But that's it - what do you recon?
Apart from why aint i doing it myself!!! - I work away most of the year and dont have time
regards
Hx
