I then got new pistons and rings assembeled and stuck the cylinder on.

Didn´t go the conventional way..but first connected the two piston rods (in down position) and then the other two while the pistons were sitting in the cylinder. I find this way easier :P

Guzzi: Thanx mate. Sorry, my guy is about to sell his machine and I´m begging for each part he makes for me. I´m sure there is a steel cutting company in Italy ! :P


Got the engine in the frame:

Thanx guys !

79MKII: I wasn´t even close to scratching the frame...and I lowered the frame over the engine by my self. You can take a pause and then mount the bolts. Def. the best way to do it.
