85 K100 Backet case - turtle project
« on: May 14, 2015, 01:35:52 PM »
Hi all,

I thought I would start a build thread; I have a basket case to put back together.  It was pretty much complete when I got it but since it had almost 0 compression in a couple cylinders the head is now off and pistons are out.  I attached a fresh set of pistons and rings attached to the rods the other night and decided to take a break after I launched 2 circlips.  I'll try to post more as progress occurs.
Cheers,

Oh - turtle; thats probably going to by my pace with the project...
