Hi harry, a lot of people on here are doing the conversion, including myself!! Nice to see some different interpretations. The cam belt tensioner location is interesting in some of those pics. And yet another different set of cam pulley wheels from what others are using! I just need to brush up on my German to read it all!!

I am using Honda wheels, made them adjustable myself. I tried to position the belt as near as possible to head to keep the lever arm, seen by the the 1st cam bearings, short. I like my idea regarding the oil return....

Looking sweet!!

Did you make your own bottom/crank pulley?
Im using honda pulleys too but its impossible to source a bottom/crank pulley!

Ive just noticed, it looks like your running your oil returns through the block. Are you using the standard bike gasket?

Wish I'd done my oil return like that now, keeps things neat and tidy at the back!

Im probably going to drill a couple of holes in the back of the block into a couple of the pushrod galleries for the rear head oil return.

The pulley plate and turbo oil return, going to old fuel pump location!

How about you Pickmeup?

the bottom pulley is a modified Honda one; I will use the original steel head gasket from BMW; the compressor wheel (hybrid) was too high for mounting on the turbineshaft; injectors will stay at the "usual" place on the top of the runners; even the stock hood fits with these pulleys! Exhaust runners will be made from mandrel bent SS pipes. Cams will be the K1 (RS) ones.

More pics and other stuff I am doing:

Harry, a bit off topic but I like what you have done with those brake bells ... may I be cheeky and ask what the base discs are meant for / where you got them?

Every day is a school day ...........

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...
