I went for a bare casting (see, said I was a tight-arse!)

I'll be getting someone I trust to do the rest of the work!

spec is yet to be finalised but will initially be on a NA 1380 running bike carbs (ZZR1100) which will be used as throttle bodies( will probably run an emerald ECU eventually).

I'm leaving the chambers big enough that I can go to a turbo 1293 later on.

blimey - those are TINY exhaust ports...
Not a great issue for the turbo given the stock ex manifold, but well restrictive for NA. Wonder why they're that shape... Must be a reason!

The ports are bigger than they look, but not massive.

yeah, not sure about that shape either, I guess minisport think most of the gasflow will be toward the top of the port (oh that exhaust port pics upside down by the way!). I've seen some of their heads with a similar shape exhaust, I guess they just took a plug of one of their ported heads?

Still someone else will be sorting that out.

Sadly the light in my garage is a bit crap so they didn't come out as good as I hoped.

Also before anyone asks the silver thing with the brass bit on it is my hydraulic flywheel puller.

Once you've won a few races, you might get one a lot cheaper for a return of sponsorship *wink* ?

I'd love to delude myself that I'm going to to win but somehow I don't think I will...

The point is it would be fun trying!
