E: Engine New Vincent Spares parts engine

[vibrac]

Ben has just completed building a new big 1300cc engine with 5 speed box for a foreign customer all the parts apart from the electric start and carburettors/adaptors were brand new parts supplied by Vincent Spares. Part of the build was to get the engine running on a test rig before shipping the start with the puff of smoke was a first start with plugs in.

Standard clutch?

Good looking/sounding engine and test rig.

How did they arrive at the 1300 cc, what bore and stroke used, the heads look standard. Who made the crank for it ..........? Just I'm interested in a stroker crank for my next engine which is running a 92 mm bore.

Standard heads went together without a fuss inlets opened out short Carrillo con rods 90 bore
