Speedy engine big end bolts

[Steve Berg]

Steve, when i rebuilt my Speedy engine I fitted Phoenix Crank and rods to protect the crankcase, so yes they fit and I found no problems other than not being entirely happy with the Phoenix starter dog. As supplied the oil ways in the dog are on the small side and in the wrong place.

Ian, is the starter dog the bit that the starting handle engages into? A new one would not be amiss since mine is rather worn and the starting handle tends to jump out.
Did you modify the oil ways. If so, what did you change?
As you see, I'm toying with the idea of going to Phoenix crank and rods.
What other surprises can I expect?

I've just had the block re-sleeved for new slipper pistons.
