I reckon a bmw front would look good on the gem, similar stylings, so maybe do some thing up to suit the gem in that style...

Well now. got the gem fixed. was the timing. evn tho the dissy didn't come off in the removal of the head, it did go out of whack somehow, maybe it was just a bit off anyways or got bumped. Its almost back to how it was before. Cheers to all the input everyone gave, maybe some bits could be useful i...

When we pulled it apart, the cam chain stayed on the sprockets, we used wire and stuff to hold it in place while we rmoved the head so that the timing chain stayed in place. We kept tension on it at all times, and it didn't move out of place.So I dont think its anything to do with a tooth out. Maybe...

Pwer Loss since new head gasket

Put in a new Head Gasket last week, and since then I am suffering loads of power loss compared to before the gasket was blown. Is it possible the timing is out? I haven't adjusted timing at all since changing. It seems to rev less than what it did before. It revs slower (picks up slower) and doesn't...

Locks are designed to keep honest people out. You can't keep thieves out of anything. But you can use as many deterrants as possible. A lock is only as strong as it's materials, and most locks are made from die cast and brass.
