Pete, the XY has a 250 crossflow from an XF, so alloy head version, with the 2 barrel Weber on it. Has been fully rebuilt, small cam in it, head work done, extractors etc. and built so she'll be suitable for an LPG conversion down the track too. Word is these crossflows go okay with some light work, so Im hoping it'll be a nice cruiser, havent driven it with the new engine yet though. She's only a cruiser so performance isnt the aim, like Im keeping the bench seat and column shift Cool

as its essentialy the same block theres no real issues, Ive done this one a few times, the only time you have issues is with the later injected motors and they can be resolved quite easily

Yup, what flaps said Smile Just bear in mind that technically you need a cat convertor, as you're supposed to meet the emmissions laws for the donor engine. I didnt install one, as I was planning to go LPG (cat not needed), not sure if it will be an issue come rego time, depends on how critical the inspection guy is Laughing

Just picked up a Felt Torch chopper style bike.

This is what a stocker looks like
XY Wagon and a coupla bikes Torch

How I picked up the bike. The guy I bought it off wanted the wheels and seat, I donated the rear guard and chainguard to his spares collection
XY Wagon and a coupla bikes FeltTorch001

And mocked up with some wheels and tyres
XY Wagon and a coupla bikes FeltTorch002

Thinking I'll paint the tank sides white (think a 2 tone Harley tank), not big on the flames. Ive ordered a seat post and faster, plus getting the broken spoke in the front wheel fixed at the moment. Looking at my options for forks/bars, dont like the current bars, but dont want to throw too much money at it Laughing
