7981GS
I got the engine in the stand and sorted through some of the parts today...
Modded the oil pick-up with a couple of holes drilled to the rear of the engine.
Some of the gathered parts...
Got these coated skirt pistons from Flaming Chainsaws. They should stay a little cooler than stock pistons in the center cylinders.
Ignition system...
Probably use the black covers.
Haven't decided on using the .345 lift or the .370 lift cams yet...
Hardened cam chain guide...
And going to blow the dust off of these 36CV carbs...
More later...

Slick idea on the oil pick-up (pun intended). You'd think it would have been fed from the rear originally. Let me know if you decide to part with either of those sets of cam covers, black or chrome. Mine are TOAST!

I am installing the Hi-pressure gears and a cooler with synthetic oil instead.
The rockers have hardened faces also.
We'll see if that is enough with the pick-up mod.

Project has been on hold once again.
But, I have decided that it will not be the run of the mill 1166 either.
It will be a nice mellow 1197cc's instead.

Sleeved 1150 cylinder and new coated 11:1 1197cc piston's showed up today!
Should go nicely with the over-sized valves, race ported head and .370/.370 camshafts.

If I get a welder to cooperate, I'll be working on the suspension mods real soon.
Last year, I put this project on hold as to not upstage another forum member with his Cooley build. (It still wasn't running)
I built 4 other bikes in the meantime though.
Ready to get to the fun toy now!
