Mike, that is bloody magnificent! Hey while your man has the machine switched on, how about an all new billet head to match it? You are definitely, "The man"! I think you and a certain Austrian frame builder should get together and start producing "JMR Egli's"! Cheers, Terry. ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

If you are really interested send MRieck a PM....
I'm not sure if a final price has been settled on but i think somewhere it was mentioned at around 1000-1200 US, don't quote me on that though.

Thanks retro rocket, but I already PM'ed Mike yesterday. I guess he's real busy.  ;D

My next step after the billet block will be to get some low compression pistons for the supercharged engine.
I'll want it to be around 1200cc's . Probably have to go with ARIAS pistons.

Machining is about the same no matter what, the bore is the cheap bit, making round holes is easy
