decided to tidy up my motor before I put it back together. Went with gloss black (that's the only black VHT they had)

No way! - I did exactly the same thing yesterday, but went with aluminium.

Need to take some pics. Well, I need to wait 7 days before I can patch up the bits I missed- Had to do it in the garage with the door shut because of the frickin wind and couldn't see that well

Yep, that's the motor. So far I have:

balanced crank
new matched NC35 pistons + rings ( + matched rods)
checked tolerances of pretty much everything internal + cleaned up everything
skimmed heads
some basic porting (seat -> bowl blending, inlets matched to rubbers and casting snot removal)
slotted RVF camshafts
HRC style oil cooler

I just need to finish off the porting and then just start rebuilding the thing.
