James 'Peach' Cornes motor coming together



Peach has been gradually building up this ripper for some time now. The long block is based around a CB supplied aluminium race case and houses a forged 82mm stroke crank, H beam rods and a Webcam 86B camshaft. 94mm jugs & slugs hang out of the case, along with Manton pushrods supplied by fellow Rennwagen man Poe B. Topping off each side is a set of Steve Tims' excellent Stage 2 heads with 42 x 37.5 valves, and 1.4 rockers to suit the cam. The longblock was assemebled by yet another RW member, Johnny Walklett. Induction will be by means of twin 44IDF's, and the exhaust is taken care of by a full stainless speedshop system.

All of the above will be finding its way into James Coooool Java green '66 over the coming weeks.
