Devcon, it\'s a high temp. industrial epoxy with a large percentage of metal filler in it. Sure there are other brands but that is trade name I always here banded about

Devcon IS the only filler to use,as it expands and contarcts,does not absorb any moisture and you can safely machine it.!:god

The NSU Ro80 is a peripheral port as standard :-) so not all are high performance engines. Not quite sure but I think Norton engines might be as well

Nortons are all pp motors. (Incidently in case you are reading Hi GEOFF!) I have a few PP engines. Have done 2, 3 and 4 rotor PP\'s. Regards Carl

I will be going peripheral port towards the end of the year with the help of Mr Hayward. Just looking into the final details of the project to make sure i don\'t spend more than i have too as it will be an involed project with many factors to consider.

Turbo\'s usually do a pretty good job of masking any exhaust/inlet noise from engines so nowhere near as good as an N/A one.
