Reliant engined Ulster build

Rather agree with the former posts..this is an Austin 7 (  which to my mind means Austin seven engines)site. Everyone has been very helpful to you thus far but if you want to build a Reliant Special, you may be best served by 750 MC..
Hope the project works out,
David.

So is my project, sorry to upset some of you rather boring purists!!

Re-read my original post please....I expect to come up against some of you with your absolutely purer than pure interests/comments, but at risk of repeating myself, re-read my post, and since when is this forum against Austin Seven specials.....really, some of you chaps astound me!

I love all Austin Sevens, have many many books on the subject, and will eventually own more genuine Austin Sevens...but I know what I wish to build at present, and I know that I am not alone...if you don't like what I am building, please refrain from replying, after all, I made myself perfectly clear in my original post...I'd like to hear from similarly minded types...which contrary to those who've replied to date, do in fact exist, therefore, if you don't like what I'm doing/thinking of doing, why reply?

Is there any part of the above reply or my original post that isn't quite explicit?!

regards

Arthur

With a lot of work you can make a reliant crank fit a 3 bearing crankcase.
The overhead Reliant engine is totally different.
If your struggling for space stick a 125 bike engine in it

I agree entirely with you. However, your answers are not particularly helpful are they?!

I would rather put a Moto Guzzi 750 V twin in it than a 125....so let's not be daft please!

15 minutes of fame comes to mind with some of these ridiculous replies! Now who said that?!

Arthur
