Wow thats a great end to the year. Plenty of stuff for 2021 but definitely less work than working with fibreglass! Look forward to seeing the oily bits come together and getting Rous fiREd up.

Good progress, keep it up.
Just be thankful you've got something to keep you busy, all of my projects are worked up and I'm looking for something new to do.
Along with moving house, 2 young children and a whole lot of other shit lol

Ok so onto to mechanicals, plumbing and wiring in the new year.

Some of you won't know but I've decided to take the plunge and rebuild and port my own engine.

Armed with my msp manual and I'll buy a street port template kit. I'm going to attack it. How hard can it be ???

So any views advice guidance is always welcomed.

One thing I defo want to do is fit a lightened flywheel. Is it worth having the e-shaft and rotors balanced as well ??? Obviously I'll send that away, no idea where, I'll try Lidl over the road from me.

I have a few bits n pieces around me need to buy a rebuild kit, seals n stuff, got a high pressure oil thingy and a thermal bypass suppository thing, super quick starter motor.

I know malcom and Jon have dabbled in various guises of renesis engines, but if Wayne or anyone else has any suggestions.

Not gonna waste time on a Bridgeport, read far too many articles about how pointless it is on a renesis


This is gonna be a breeze loll
