    not only is Allen a genius and cake enthusiast but the people he uses to do some of the work are unsung heroes of engineering with very high standards of workmanship

    Wait... No Tracy's baking, no birds, no hedgehogs, no heating up the piston in the barbecue? Ohhh, this is Henry's channel! I can tell because Allen is in a (magical) shed!

    About eight years ago my buddy sold a gold star engine for 10 grand, no gear box but the motor was a cherry. He dad had bought it or horse traded for it in the seventies and it was rathole away for years, his dad had been gone for about sixteen years before he parted with it. He was still apprehensive to sell it for fear of his father coming back from beyond and chastising him for selling it. True story 👍

    And this is in between Allens brilliant rebuilding and modification of the Norton Nemesis, incedently when I was a teenager rebuilding my BSA Super Rocket back in the 60s (in the back yard, no garage) I had to use a kettle of hot water to warm the pistons for the gudgeon pins and found supporting the pistons at TDC was quite easy to lower the barrel onto them.

    Leaving pistons in the house on a radiator overnight also works well. Oooh a picture of a Jones crane.

    I can't understand why you don't use gasket paper on the crankshaft housing Allan 😮

  • @user-hb4gp6oq5t
    @user-hb4gp6oq5t 21 день тому

    Allen won't be getting much out of that motor, he's fitted a long rod piston to a BB, or mid length rod motor. The distance above the gudgeon height is the giveaway. The ZB Gold Stars have the long rod, and the BB has the mid length rod.

      Everybody makes mistakes, even near geniuses, though if the above is correct one would think he'd notice piston position at TDC. The piston was well down in the barrel.
