apologies to the OP as the thread has moved away from the original topic.
So Adrian, your aluminum block is secured by only the two bolts where the cam towers would normally mount, or are there a couple more on the other side?
What's the single big cap bolt on the sloped surface doing?
Do you have the bar slotted to allow for some adjustability?'83 GS650G

The block is held down by 4 bolts, it fits in place of the camshaft "tower". the big cap head bolt is the spring compressor. the bar is not slotted, it is drilled and tapped to line up exactly with the valve. BigD-83 i can PM you some more detailed pics and dimension drawings if you are that interested.1978 GS1085.
Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!

I have the idea, but would appreciate a drawing if it's not a bother.

No problem. I just wish there was a thread on his aluminum block while I was waiting a week for my Lisle tool to arrive.Originally posted by BigD_83 View Postapologies to the OP as the thread has moved away from the original topic.

If you don't mind, you should just pot detailed pics and drawings on here. I'll post my drawing when I have some free time.Originally posted by Agemax View PostThe block is held down by 4 bolts, it fits in place of the camshaft "tower". the big cap head bolt is the spring compressor. the bar is not slotted, it is drilled and tapped to line up exactly with the valve.
