Started to strip my original 998 tonight.

I have 2 motors to strip, the second is the good one with 1098 crank and +.020" pistons, 12G202 head with double valve springs etc, but in the '75 block.

Once I get this motor stripped completely, I will send the block off to be bored out, and the head will get some hardened valve seats, for unleaded. Might give the ports a little 'tickle' as well

I am getting 'someone else' to spanner it all together for me.

I have to say though......this is my first full on motor rebuild, and nothing beats stripping something yourself. I have learnt so much already!

iv stripped a couple of mini motors and it is great fun and you learn alot too

Second the Motion...Platick Zip Lock bags are handy and a Marker
Yer use the 202 Head and Tickel it..Now I'm expecting the 1098 Crank, What Else or are you keep it secret

used a zip lock bag for the lifters. they were mint. the ones from the stroked 998 were shocking!!

the bores in this motor still have hone marks, so I think it was rebuilt recently....but not bored...it's a virgin.

Jim......cam.....might be a GR special.

Might have a NEW Weber coming too, from a family friend. (Head of RECARB) got to pay though.....cost price.

Have fun with it mate, should be a good learning experience, just as it has and still is for me!
We still doing the gearbox?
Cheers

what are they?

no worries mate, we can do it. Just need to get em off the engines and then we can strip em down and work out what you need. There pretty easy from what i have seen. That is once you have seen how to do it. If the Doc wants to show you though, thats cool.

Cheers
