Wtd... R1 'head and other bits

Has any body got a good R1 head from a 5vy engine hanging about?

I also need an 5vy oil cooler. the oil to water standard unit.

Let me know if you have and if you could get to Stoneleigh with it that'd be a bonus.

That doesn't sound too good Adi...

Nope. It's not.

Adi,

I've got a 4C8 oil cooler available which I'm sure is the same as the 5VY (just checked - it is)

£20? Are you at Stoneleigh?

That'd be great. Yeah I'm going Sat till Monday.

The engine is sorted or just your search for parts?

That particular search (see new wanted add) for parts... Engine builder has come up with a 'head and TimC sorted me with the oil cooler.

Head is being ported to the original race spec (the engine guy is the same one who did it originally at Virgin Yamaha) and it'll go back in with some other mods later.

Original motor going back for now but need a couple of minor bits sorting first.
