A few pics of my car & large port head back after porting

[Hammy999]

As I have the finished large port head for fitting thought it would be a good time to post some pics of the car and head.<br>

Nice work!! What Finish are the wheels in they look great!!

 

[Hammy999]

Thanks Rich the wheels are anthracite

 

[Rich196]

Iv seen so many shades of anthracite tho, but they look great the whole car does!!!

 

[Hammy999]

They were done by The Wheel Specialist, I like that it gives a nice contrast with the black of the car.

looks great mate. Who did the work for you?

 

[Hammy999]

The porting was done by Slick Bass, he normally does race bikes he is well respected within that field he has done a lot with WSB. It is the first time he has done a car head, he did get a little carried away but he likes his job!! I cant believe how clean he got it compared to when I gave it to him.

I have a ADR N/A cam to go in as well. Just need the extra funds and only just got the car back a few weeks ago.

why do the water jacket holes look like that (irregular between cylinders)
how much of a skim has this thing had??

 

[Hammy999]

It only had and needed a small skim. It had some welding at some point which looked like it was probably at the factory, either way Slick was happy with the quality of the welding. We discussed tidying it up but went with best leave it alone !!

'Slick Bass' as in Foggy, WSBK, 90's Slick Bass?

The very same I am lucky he is a friend of mine and based on the Island. He has done work on my bikes before so thought he would like the challenge of something different. He is a talented and great guy.

 

[Reesy]

That is pretty cool. In fact, that is very cool.

looks lush, if you havnt already get some locking wheel nuts!

Thanks but not such a problem on the Isle of Man the advantage of low crime rates. Also I have put the centre caps back on since taking the pics, so doesn't stand out as much.
