That's strange, my ARP's came with two different length rocker studs. Only about 5 threads shorter.

ok you may remember 2 pages back i was grinding away metal from the gearbox and the remote?

 

nice.

new coil pack mount made. rad mounts adjusted with carriers for the wiring and sender pipes. just a little bit of wiring to sort and fit the rest of the exhaust.

and yes it does still fit under the body.

then it will be time do add fluids.

wiring done, oil pressure acquired brakes and clutch bleed. just needs some fuel adding to it.

Nice work Nick. A lot of hours there.

 

You putting it on the rollers to break it in and have it set up ?

[nicklouse]

Unfortunately that is not an option. But the spec is basically the same as last time. Need to give it a longer run a# it has had a heat cycle and retorque done. Then it is back onto the trailer till some time it can get set up. But first it needs to be transported back to the UK. Need to get the suspension set up before the rollers.
