Another 2a build thread

And today was a reverse of yesterday

Sump off.

Sorted out the crankshaft oil seal, gearbox adapter plate/flywheel housing on, flywheel on, clutch in, gearbox in, sump back on.

Waiting for leaks...


Toad came over to give me a hand. It's a lot easier with two people! Thanks Toad.

Yeah - I am subscribed to your thread so I had a look at todays pics. Shame about that piston. Any idea what size it is? Mine was original factory but the bore was lipped. I could have gone out to .030" over but couldn't find any quickly so went to .040" over.

If I had a big shed I guess I would be a lot further on with mine. The engine and gearbox I did on stands in the garage but all other work is done outside so it really depends on the weather as to what gets done on any given day

No idea, assume it is original, haven't bothered to check...anyway we have an engine to put in if need be, we have spares, though the original will be in sooner or later
