No doubting that this engine is 1275cc *tongue*



Just starting to get my teeth into this build, this is how it looks so far after a week of cleaning, painting fettling and assembling.

The rings are not installed yet so I could check that the clearancies for the con rods to the block and oil jets were all ok. The only thing I might have to do is either notch or take about 1mm off the bottom of all the pistons to increase the clearance with the oil jets.
