thank you hoser.

Hey Jim, what are you going to be using for an overflow bottle? I wound up using a bottle from a banshee and made an custom bracket to hang it from the top of the cage in the triangle area where everyone likes to put number plates. If I roll it the bottle's bracket should bend and not do damage to the bottle (I hope).

really havent put to much thought to it yet.bin checken out ebay from time to time hopin to find something nice and small that i can tuck away somewhere.hopefully in the next week or two i can get out to the garage and get some real work done.its just bin to dam cold here to work out in the garage with no heat.hopefully trevor has the heads soon so i can button this thing up and pressure test.still waiten for the pipe this is going on 6 months

Damn! I thought 4 months for the head was a long time! Hopefully we will get something soon! I don't know about you but I'm starting to get impatient!

You know, once that thing is all buttoned up we will be requiring pictures from every possible angle (close ups) of that bad boy!

Rand

very nice looks great ...

thank you sunblock.rand im like a little kid everyday when i come home hoping for a nice big box sitting on the steps of the house.hopefully they will ship soon.

one step foward two back.after asking alot of questions and reading i took my cylinder back off the Engine and shipped it to trevor at hillside honda to cut the deck of my cylinder to correct the squish to the proper clearence.then when he makes my hillside head he will change the cc's in the dome to correct the compresson to run on pump gas.so now it back to wait time.hopefully i can get this Engine back together before the end of the month.the weather is startin to warm up gettin the itch to go ride.

Hey Jim, are you going to plug the holes in your radiator where the thermo switches are? If you didn't have them welded over and are looking for a plug to fit in them the threads are a M18 x 1.5. I used an Oil pan drain plug Dorman # 090-114.

Rand

havent really gave it any thought yet.that's on the small details list LOL that i hope i get to someday.

Jim327, did you tell him how much to take off. Is the dome cc the only change to the head he is gona make. Just curious.

trevors going to set my squish at .035 to .040 and is going to correct the compression (cc the head) to run on pump gas.as soon as he shoots me over the numbers i let you know.

ok spent the day working on the oddy.ran all the wires for the switches,installed front works shocks,flushed and serviced the brake system.

What are the two switches on the aluminum panel for?

Rand

that's the mounting plate for my digitron

Now that I downloaded it and zoomed it, I can see what it is. For a minute there I thought you had two more switches.

Rand

ok played around a little bit today mounted up a new gs series autometer gauge and 2 30 amp relays for the pump and fan.Rand thanks for the info for the sensor plug fitting it worked out great.

You're welcome!

Rand

I was up 'till about 3 reading this post from front to back...Really like the determination you guys have! I've noticed a lot of you that have 6 month+ projects going because you want to get it done right. I know ya'll have more patience than me....I hate being out a weekend!!

I really like the 450R radiator setup with the tubing...mounting looks good...and the water pump setup is nice. Can't wait for you to get you head and pipe in so we can see this thing move!
