Thanks Andrew.

Just got a few jobs to get sorted and I'll be firing the engine up. Video will be taken of course, but might take me a few weeks, as I'm busy with work and I'm getting some drinking in with a trip to Prague.

Hi Ben
You don't have to go to Prague for a drink, just nip down to Yeovil

Not been about much lately, but my head is ready for action now. Had a 18 hour day at work on Saturday, so I'm off to Prague for a well deserved pissup. Once I'm back, I'll get this little lot finished and fired up.

Thanks Jan. I need to turn the back of the insert down a bit first before it's fully ready.

I think you missunderstand, I'm just referring to the area around the plug threads for better cooling

You know now, it's in your instructions to take the back down to about 8mm

I put it through its first heat cycle this morning and took a video for you.

I need to iron out a few minor things and get the carbs a little better, but once done, it will be on the dyno.

No not really, I had to make some insert collars for the KIPS valves and the work you see for the insert itself, but Jan has spent a lot of time working on these cylinder heads and has done an excellent job. Also remember to run a file around the water outlets underneath, as these edges are a bit sharp. The information Jan provided for the heads was very comprehensive as well, so just have a good read of that and you'll be good to go.
