oxy 2.jpg (25964 bytes)Cam and crank. Note 2100 cc crank in 1900 cc case requires clearancing of the case roof. A type 1 cams drops straight in.
oxy 11.jpg (46448 bytes)Two WBX case halves. This view shows the before and after versions of the WBX case halves. The water jacket has been machined down to 12 mm above the barrel seating surface act as strengthening gussets to the crankcase.

oxy 5.jpg (26620 bytes)Three cases. WBX, WBX modified and Type 1.
oxy 6.jpg (22291 bytes)Two barrels, to achieve the correct deck height, the barrel on the left has been machined to locate the barrel deeper into the case and match the larger 100 mm opening in the case.
