[Minter]

Head painted, skimmed and polished!



350 cases camoflage what is lurking inside!



Test run this evening once Ady has heard his 560 running..

It Lives!!

Easier to kick than i thought!



I'll leave it on the test rig so you can hear it and see how easy it is to kick start!

Today I went out for a blap for a few hours with Alex. The 640 is absolutely MENTAL. The 865 cam is exactly how I remember it - fierce. This engine is not for the light hearted, so Ill be putting a softer cam in this week !!
Very very smooth though, a few carburation issues but otherwise, a very very nice engine.

Ive added a Supertrapp to it with 5 discs, Ive built a link pipe from some 50mm stainless stuff we found at Stafford so it sounds great.

Thanks Minter for a great rebuild!

It must be fast if you need so much braking.
