ZX 16v

[welshpug]

I sold the engine to Blandy back in December, as I had happened upon the basis of a full engine build, in the form of a Block and higher compression pistons.

The last few months have been a battle of collecting bits, deciding what direction to take it and budget constraints, and making it work with what I already have to hand!

Currently, I have a big jigsaw puzzle, almost ready to assemble, crank has already been fitted and plasticauged, along with a Conrod and piston in to check deck height and valve clearance.

Decided to paint it a striking colour





Big thanks to Carl Robson and Sandy Brown for helping out with the conrods, also thanks Sandy for the pointers in what to measure.

Also Ed and Steve at Warners for supplying the o.e parts at very good prices.
