1973 v7 Sport refresh

<< < (10/10)

Scout63:
Finally getting back into the Sport today.  I checked new ring end gaps in the n/s plated cylinders and installed rings on the pistons. One of the few steps that I can handle on the kitchen counter with a clear conscience.

I’m not sure exactly what was done to the engine Steve. The crank has been filed here and welded there so definitely balanced.  The pistons have three rings instead of four and stock spec rings fit fine with one top ring left over on each side.

Thanks for the encouragement Dave.
