"Unbalanced" new 356 motor?

[912uk]

I still think a huge amount is going to be carb related and the set up.

If your that concerned drop it out and wip the heads off..

check the heads for cracks

clean them up..

relap the valves

check the washers height under the springs.

CC the heads..

put it all back togeather..

then get started working on the carbs check the linkages

check the carbs even work properly esp the accellerator jets and get it all timed up and if should be ok from there.

also swap the disy over I did this once just out of sheer well I checked every thing else and quess what !! it was the disy weights were buggered..

Have just this evening discovered its running a 009 dizzy, so that ain't gonna help!
Dizzy and carbs first and if that doesn't sort it then we'll start looking at other potential "issues"
Thanks for everyones input.

Rest of the cars great though... I'll try and get some proper pics up soon

Sprintstar67 - you state the motor has been recently rebuilt. Do you have info on the balancing of the engine, I presume it was dynamically balanced (i.e. all the reciprocating parts)? Sometime the clutch is left off or installed slightly off centre which can cause vibration. another thought/possibility to add to the puzzle....

For my sixpenny worth,if you have the engine out, I would double check all of the flywheel bolts are tight, while you are in there.

Have you tried contacting Strasse. Did they fit the engine after rebuild? If so I'm sure Dave Sunderland would have noticed any problems when checking it. He might have a clue what your problem is.
