Clean and Shiny Engine for Once. 1979 AMF Harley-Davidson XLH1000 Ironhead Sportster

It'll look like absolute crap after a few dozen miles

You must have some speed wrenches since the front cylinder was discarded in disgrace eleven hours ago. ;-)

The front cylinder has been pardoned 🙂 Top end rebuilds are all down to how easy the rear rocker cover goes on; this time I got lucky and it took about ten minutes to wriggle it on and hook the gaskets back in place. I've had to tear this engine down a lot over the years, so it's fairly routine now.
