Hi - note that under AMCA rules (and also therefore Greeves Championship) - we arn't allowed to change the port configuration (dimensions yes - although that is risky ).
On My 380 QUB - my exhaust port bridge cracked last year - and Simon Bateman (Nametab) - re-manufactured from modern cast iron - a new liner - back to original bore and port specification. cost about £150. He also has a batch of new 380 Pistons. (Stormer recommended them) CAst not forged - but good quality racing pistons and should be much more reliable than the Dykes ringed Hepolite originals.
Overall this rescued my barrel - and has improved the performance and reliability.

Hi Stormer,
Don't think Simon understands the word discount - /i agree he is definately the man for our old 2-strokes.
He will soon be getting some forged racing pistons made up for 250's (70mm barrel) - suitable for 250 Griffon's - which will improve the Hepolite/Dykes ringed originals.
Cheers Kim
