Hey Derek

I've got one I brought out from the UK. Now in Chandler. Sammy will be able to find it.

Help yourself. All in a good cause

All the best

Andrew

Derek
A lot were machined down for A engines before it was possible to buy counter weighted cranks
and a lot were broken in hi power hi revving engines (race engines)
I know I broke 2 before I learnt how to drill them correct and fit harmonic balancer
Good luck
Colin
