      @vonryansexpress The Suzuki GSXR750 parts found everywhere in the Melling MCD engine (including the entire gearbox cartridge?) may slightly undermine the originality argument! By all means it's still an impressive 1500cc V8 though.

    After many years of working as a welder and machinist doing r&d with engineers I do understand why the Norton team did the things they did to build this bike... However it doesn't mean that I would ever endorse that type of work as I'm of the mindset of why do a job twice and double the costs when one can just as easily take the extra time and energy to build it right the first time.. HOWEVER,had Norton done that, then Allan would never have done this series, and we wouldn't be watching a master do what he does when he fixes others failures... 👍

    I know this mightn't seem like a big deal to many, but I LOVE IT when an engine rebuilder DOESN'T slather everything in loads of synthetic assembly lube.
    Here we see Allen using engine oil for the most part, and judicious application of the assembly lube. Not much more is needed, people. And into the bargain, you don't end up with all that excessive synthetic lube contaminating the engine oil and compromising the running-in process.
    Of course, this is just my 2-bob's worth... don't want to start an engine oil argument! They never end well 😀

      Some quirky engineering. Reminds me of the 1700cc Triumph, 4 cylinder engine that was in my SAAB 99 of 1971. It had head bolts that came in from an angle next to the cam box and standard arrangement for the lower set - the angled ones were screwed into the head as studs, driven by a slotted screwdriver, then nuts onto the studs to pull it together. The engine developed a head gasket leak at about 70k miles and i had no problem getting the studs out. At about 107k miles, the engine started from cold with a terrible knock/rap, I think a broken piston. When I went to remove the studs, they would not budge. Conference with the dealer indicated the head would have to be destroyed to service the problem - I sold the car to an enthused rebuilder. I was a professional motorcycle mechanic and most services I could handle but this was not for me. The case bolts coming in from the top on this Norton prototype reminds me of that and the single compression ring makes this engine far from ideal, IMHO.

    Great to see it coming back together, top tip re the bolts you could only get an eighth of a turn on with the Allen key, start them by hand for 2 or three turns, then get a 2 inch wire wheel in a battery drill and spin them down with that before doing the final tighten with the Allen key, 9 times out of 10 they’ll spin down 👍
