Is the early B44 cylinder head the same as the late B40, ie 6 hole mounts and round.

Or is there a difference in valve sizes?

Singles / Gold Star engine for sale?
15 May, 2018, 16:57:25
https://aberdeen.craigslist.co.uk/mpd/d/bsa-gold-star-engine/6568343591.html

I think this looks suspicious apart from the price, if you check the other listings there is some pretty exotic stuff there!

The Star and Garter / The forum in general
14 March, 2018, 20:28:58
Its good to see the forum as active as it is, there is a wealth of knowledge out there and its obvious that most of the people on the forum are all willing to help each other.

I am not a member of the Bsa owners club for no other reason than i cant get to any of the club meetings as i don't think there is a branch in Glasgow!

Twins / Bsa crank bushing size?
27 November, 2017, 18:28:47
How do you calculate the size of bush reqd for crankshaft plain bush. I have measured the crank at 1.475" but confused as to what size of bush i will need, i know it has to be reamed to give a 0.015 clearance.

thanks
