Hi All,
I'm about the reinstall the engine and gear box in my Ulster Rep. The engine is without the dynamo, exhaust and other bits. It does have a Riccardo alloy head. The gearbox is a three speed. The head has 14mm plugs. I'm wondering if I can use a hoist and attach the hoist to the two centre plug holes with 14mm ring bolts or if this would compromise the head...break the bolts out of the head. I'm hopeful I can do this with the gear box attached. Any advice is much appreciated.
