Starting to get some parts together now for the 120r crate motor that I was going to fit and not touch

I am still waiting on my domed CP pistons from GMR and the Tman 662-2 cams are in the post

Got S&S lifters with travel limiters

SE cam plate

Zippers dual piston cam chain tentioners

and the required gaskets

Ando
I'm running my CP slugs tight at 2.5 thou clearance with no problems. No rattle on a cold engine starts. Give Steve a call on what he runs on his builds.

 hey Ando just curious why you never went the the sprocket drive cams instead of cam chains??

TMAN 662-2 cams have arrived

I got the 2011 120R that didn't come with the SE cam plate but the SE compensator, 2012 120R's come with the cam plate and not the Compensator

I have .030" cometic Head gaskets coming to use instead of the SE 0.040" Head gaskets as well

Ando, you probably already know, but just be aware you may have to vary your base gaskets to set your deck height close to zero.
I ended up with a .010 and a .020 gasket to get to - .002 thou' deck with the CP pistons.
Not sure what thickness the HD gaskets are ?

yeh I have .020" base gasket, my pistons will have a 5.5 dome so I would expect them to be a wee bit high than the deck

Even with the dome, you still need to know your deck height to set your quench. Makes it harder to measure with a dome in the way though !

Hows the 120 going old mate.
I'm looking forward to these build so keep us informed.

Funny you say Hogbag got some more bits yesterday so with some nice wether today I might get a ride in change then syn oil to some mineral with new filter ready to start stripping down during the week and get the barrels over for re-bore whilst I up at work next swing

New ne CP pistons even have GMR written into their tops

Some AV&V Beehive springs

It's good they have coated skirts. I think it's worthwhile.
It's funny, I caught the reflection of the HQ symbol on the piston through the spark plug hole, and thought WTF is sitting on the piston!! DUH !

Ando
This build should rip your arms out when she's buttoned up. Keep the photo's coming mate as my misses stopped me spending money on bike porn after the 3rd HP/Torque rebuild.
My women just don't understand my need for speed.

might aswell stay in this thread

went for a aride with norm and BT yesterday come home and dropped the syn oil put in fresh mineral oil (using the scavanger puck) and had the sled stripped down by dinner time

Barrels are getting machined, heads are getting cleaned up and having new valves stems seals and beehive springs fitted all other bits have been cleaned and are ready for when barrels and heads are done

 

 

 Ha Ha Ha ,,, Hilly, you'll hear the fireworks from your place if they're not M8.        

 

on second thoughts, he'll prolly want them finished before he goes !

Hope so Hilly

Hopefully have the heads torqued down before I fly out this friday

Rocker support plate should be here before I get back home

soaked the SE pistons in some mean green degreaser for a coupla days,,,,,,,,,,, BTW these SE pistons are a nice bit of kit

Is that first one outa the 120? How many k's on it? See,ms tobe a fair bit of carbon....
