Due to the lack of success in finding the right piston for my replacement engine, i've decided to shelve it for the time being and concentrate on my latest acquisition; Thanks very much to Bob McNeil, I now have a Chev 235 motor for the Blitz! John Mackie picked it up for me while he was in Cowra, and we've been working on it at his place to get it going.
We set ourselves up on the back of John's ute in his backyard, and we've been doing all we can to get the engine into the best possible shape. The engine itself isn't in the worst shape, thank goodness, and although we've struck a few problems along the way, nothing has been insurmountable. We flushed a fair bit of rubbish out of the motor as you can see, but we have in this engine good material to work with!
More to come...
