Scottish Trueno rebuild - Nürburgring with pics!

[kazi]

So a little update I suppose, stripped both engines to see how they look. Some big end bearings in both engine are destroyed to the point that i had to take a chisel to one of them to get them off!! (see pic below!)

Cranks don't look to bad all things considered. One better than the other but they are both 42mm cranks which is a plus!

I'm still trying to identify the cams. I will send these off to Pipercams to get an ID on them but measurements see to suggest that they are 8.60 lift.

SO the next immediate step is to get both cranks inspected, get bores sized and get the cams ID.

As you can see, the shell on the right has melted to one side

You can see the silver markings on the side of the rod where the shell managed to score
