G.O.O.
I cleaned the outside of the head with carb cleaner followed by a very light coat of Halfords silver brake caliper spray. Only time will tell if it satys put or peels off?

Martin,
re- the TR6 exhaust, yes i know, it was just your idea that caused me to stumble across the silencers on ebay. I take your point about the silencers being near the tank. They're not as close as they look in the picture. Is there anything in the SVA manual that covers this aspect? Might have to move the tank up like you. Any drawbacks of doing this?

Well spotted about the steering column mount, I keep changing my mind!
It is now back the other way up, as this moves it slightly nearer the centre of the car as the mount is not symetrical. Who knows which way it will be when its finished, but I have now spotted two Marlin factory built sportsters with it upside down, so I think this is what Mark intended. Everytime i've seen Mark, I have forgotten to ask him.

cheers
Peter
