ACL thrusts are NOT made anymore. The last production of +30 thrusts ACL made were a special order through a mate i have that works there and was a once off. I had them produced as i was sick of hunting around trying to find old stock and when they did turn up they cost a fortune. The sets that Linsey sells he got from me.

If you need any +.030"s, ring Graham Russell, he got ACL to make a heap of them a year ago. :wink:

I bet Matt Read has some, but he's still looking for the Holy Grail (-0.080" ones) :lol:

hee hee,,, yeah i have "some" 060s,,, & yes i still have a few sets of 080 unders too :-)

& i can get them anytime i want now anyways :-) Not that i need anymore right now tho,,, i`ve only ever used the one set,,,, they were dads & he wouldn`t sell them to me originally,,, the deal was that i replace them for him,,, so i did that , but figured that seeing as i made 2x 1510cc engines that i`d need 2 more sets at least which would give me a spare set if anything went wrong, but then i figured that maybe they will be harder to get , the longer i leave the hunt for them,,, that`s why i was chasing them all over the place for years,

i`m glad i didn`t just rip in & do a quick overhaul on the 1510, cause now i`m doing the K1200 Twinky head ontop of it :-) & i think i`ll just keep the spare engine simply as spares,,, i reckon i`m going to need some bits of it at some stage :-) Like the main 3 bits being crank , big end bearings & block :-)

I've gota std/std LJ crank set aside, I'd like to build a stroker with it

but I'd also like to de-stroke one.... just because... and with a +.020" block, I could *just* slip into class B at Hay with 1244cc, I reckon it'd go nicely with a twin cam head
