    They have letters A, B, C... on them and matching letters can be found on the head.

    the head has too much paint on it so hence the question.  Maybe my eyesight has something to do with it also.

     

    Gsx cam timing problems

    I am building up an 1170 motor.  A oproblem i have never encountered before.  I get to the 1-4 T mark and I cannot get it lined up.  It seems to rock one way or the other.   4 times i have done it and the cams are out.

    you can take feeds to the cooler from either the bolts either side of the oil filter covr, or else from the oil pressure switch takeoff behind the number 4 cylinder on the right side of the engine. if you use the oil filter cover bolts, you need a way to force the oil to go up to the cooler or else it will just short circuit round inside the filter. there are two ways to do this. either use an efe (1135) filter cover which has a restrictor on the inside that prevents the oil from going straight through the filter and skip the cooler, this has a small gap in the casting to allow some oil flow in case the filter gets clogged. alternatively, some aftermarkeet cooler kits came with a small alloy plug that went into the oilway under the filter cover that has a round hole to accept it, the blanking plug again has a small hole through the middle to allow oil to pass if the filter gets blocked. this plug is designed to be used with a standard gsx11(1075cc) oil filter cover. you need one or the other, easiest is to use the efe cover cos its simpler way.

    I have all this John.  What I am needing it the size threaded part that goes into the engine for the hose to attach to so I can fit an8 instead of an10. The rest I will be able to sort out.

    It is for the gsx1100.  I am refitting a cooler and want to replace the lines.   I got pirtec to make my last lines but they were more suited to a tractor.  My Iines before theta were an10. To bulky and very 90,s.   So I am going black hose finishing.
