Hi Chaps,
Almost finished the rolling chassis of my Spitfire inspired A10. Next will be a gearbox rebuild and get that bolted in, ( hopefully shouldnt take too long , famous last words, I seem to be able to remember uttering when I started the rolling chassis but still!)
But after that I need to start on the motor. I have most of it including large journal crank, thick flange barrels and an ali head. Despite it being a Spitfire I would like to build the motor "soft" with lowish comp pistons, mild cam, so my questions are what comp ratio, what camshaft number and will this be ok with the ali head. I dont want to use one of my iron ones even painted silver so please dont suggest that. Im tempted to ask SRM to refurb and assemble the bottom end and ill take it from there or get T and L to refurbish the components and Ill reassemble, any feelings on these options.
Look forward to your opinions as always.
Cheers Spyke
