ah glory be to the adjustable valve clearances ..no shims in here thank you very much... like my cvh with its hydraulic lifters/tappets... I love the torquing down part of a job very satisfying... Cheers Dave and an early Happy New Year to you and your family..
Well it's the joy of working with 1930's technology. All simplicity and brute force! No one tried to make it work better by making it more complicated. Thank you and a Happy New Year to you and your family too!
Hi I am looking into buying a lomax Where did you get those tappet covers, i would want to change to them too Cant find it yet Looks like from lomax themselves?
I'm not sure when I will ever get round to finishing this Lomax - too many other projects. Yes, they are Lomax covers - no idea if they still sell them, these are from the original conversion. Skäl David
