1972 Scamp in New Zealand
Scored some garage time to work on this cream puff,
Decided to take a break from the underseal removal.
started on Saturday by pulling the engine further to pieces,
timing chain has seen better days
Not an issue as I already have a replacement double row chain that I got with my Cam kit. Proceeded to remove the cam to check the cam bearings. Unfortunately they’re goosed.
so I’ll speak to my machinist and organise to get the motor down to him to have them replaced. I’ve got the heads ready to drop to him anyway to have them machined to take the double valve springs. I’ll give the ports a tickle up when I get them back from him.
