Cyborg my handsome, any excuse I will make another JIG it's just something to change my mind to do some thing different, keeping the brain active, the ability to concentrate and stay focused is extremely difficult after spending so many years in keeping focused on getting ships and bananas in prime condition to destinations world wide. Presently I have about seven projects on the go, could do with some serious help.
A) 1952 Rapide (first Vincent I ever saw that my sister used to pillion on) in West Looe 1958 Lighteningised
by Clifford Brown George's brother.
B) "A" Comet all working but oil pump needs to be pulled down to renew drive pin on scavenge gears
C) The works made trials Flash built for Pat Wilson (of Lawton & Wilson Southampton)
D) My recently acquired "D" Comet after selling an all matching "C" Comet & fitting an electric starter.
E) Sunbeam 1919 "V" twin JAP engine 996 cc that I try ing to get rid of
F) Set of enclosures to make my sons "D" Rap into a Knight
G) Another twin "B" motor to mack a Black Lightening Replica as Gordon Powell thinks the motor came from a Cooper.
H) Another set of Comet cases to make a Meteor unless any one has a set of HRD cases for a pair o Comet ones ?
The most popular jig is the twin plugging of heads, made over 30 years ago whilst on an "M" boat the last I served on was 1990. It's been around to three members this year alone and it is used with hand tools only no machinery required. Secure the jig into the head using a crew in adaptor to drill the second hole then use the guided facing tool to seat the plug against. Remove the adaptor and drill through the threaded jig to drill through the head and then tap through the threaded hole to keep the tap straight, Also used to drill out old valve guides then pilot drill the inlet guide housing larger so the quad rings can be machined at the lower end of the guide leaving the top with the knife edge to scrape off the surplus oil but allows oil into guide to lubricate. 1/2" guide diameter is not sufficient to fit a quad seal into, make sense !
