w.steele, these are spares... My original engine's still going strong. Got one off Ebay for the carbs and a few other bits, and one just for mucking about with- I'm thinking of changing the pistons for Busa ones so I wanted a dead engine to practice on, like a med student
Fizz, "They all do that sir". It's the water pump cover, for some reason all the paint falls off- I've got 3 engines now and they all look identical. I'll be getting one coated, if you want i can get you one to do the same with (or if you don't mind waiting, I could get them both done- though it'd be hard to colourmatch anything but black)
I think they could be a bit awkward to replace mind, side-cover off job maybe. Not sure.
