Paul, further to our earlier discussion..... Last night, just for fun, I
decided to weigh one of my old lightened rods, and compare it to a stock
rod (these are TR-3/4 rods). The stock rod (same one I used the other day)
was 956 grams. My lightened rod was 848 grams. In addition, in the race
motors, I used tool steel wrist (er, gudgeon) pins which had much thinner
wall thickness, and were therefore much lighter than the stock ones. I
also lightened the pistons. So, there is obviously quite a bit of
potential for lightening these components.

Hi Roger - Spike Milligan (one of the goons) also said "English is a great
language which has been badly translated by the Welsh, the Scots and the
Irish."
Spike once mounted 20 pound notes inside separate glass fronted picture
frames with expensive guilt edges and posted them round the world to
various Presidents, Kings and Queens and the Pope. Under the pound note in
each frame was a beautifully hand written note which read, "IN CASE OF
BANKRUPTCY BREAK CLASS."
Spike's latest 'off the cuff' remark was made on TV last week. He was
involved in an interview with Harry Secome (another member of the original
goon show team). Harry, bless his heart, is getting over a bad stroke,
which was what the TV programme was about. Harry made the mistake of asking
Spike, "Well do I look any better mate? Spike replied, "You look bloody
marvelous to me, cos' I thought you'd been dead for the last five years."
