1966 BSA A65L Resurrection Part 10 top end measurements .

This video is discussion on discoveries found once the cylinder has been removed. I measured the cylinder bore , rings , ring gap , and upper con rod bushes along with the pins with the tools I have available in my garage. I took notes of my measurements I decided a video on measuring would have been very long and drawn out so this is just a overview of my findings and a update of the cylinder head that was shipped out last week. Thanks watching more videos to come as parts go out and come back from the machine shop.

@@zachwrench THANKS ZACH, THAT'S GREAT. I THOUGHT THESE TANKS WERE ONLY UK. MINE IS ALSO FOR 197O LIGHTNING, GOING ON A 1970 FIREBIRD, WANTED THE BIGGER TANK SO I CAN GET DECENT FUEL RATHER THAN THE ETHANOL CRAP WHICH ENDS UP WITH WATER IN IT. ALL THE BEST FROM ENGLAND
