Can anyone make a list of all the major parts I need to build a reliable 1835 type I motor. I have a set of 40/44 Dual Kadrons - but that's it up to now. Don't go suggesting I should buy Twin Dellortos - I think that the money I could spend on carbs with a better name could be put towards building in strenght and longevity to the case and cranks etc. Ok the solex's that Kadron use are Brazilian, but with the right kind of care and maintainence they can remain reliable whilst doing the same job as the Dellortos. I don't have an unlimited budget but I will be going for new case, strong crank, performance cam and oil pump and big valve heads. any ideas (Neal, Heath, Andy, anyone ...) Lee.
