And there’s more! Two full loads of engine cases. Slight change to this delivery, no stud holes. This allows an engine builder to add any make of cylinder or orientation. No transfers cut so the build can be entirely flexible, add any cylinder Vespa, Moto X, Super Kart you name it. Any crank from 58/107 to 76/133.

New off the CNC and a limited run to satisfy a number of specialist tuners. I have machined a number of development Small Block engine cases. These engine cases are machined with small block stud spacing and cylinder spigot but no transfer ports. The crank case is machined to 103mm to permit 64 stroke and 101 diameter webs. Case includes seal plates and shock mounting but excluding end plate. PM for trade enquiries or use the Web shop link to follow shortly £950 inc VAT

Lambretta Images Archive is updated and open. Photos, models, the odd trip, and a few bits in the shop.

What's changed:

You can upload your own images to the galleries again after many years.

The port timing calculators have been updated to be easier to use and now include gearing.

There is a big parts section, pulled in from around the web.

You can search for Lambretta related stuff and if it's not there already it will be added to the site dynamically.

If you want your own blog on here, ask. I'll say yes to people I trust.

The look and feel of the site has been completely revamped. It's a little trippy but you can toggle that off if you don't like it. I'm sure space cakes will like it.

Added a quiz you might like playing. This may be expanded later too.

Feedback please, love it or hate it. I want to know.

Model C and Lc cylinders have left the foundry and on their way to the machine shop. Total first run is 100pcs. The kit is a straight bolt on 125cc with read valve but don’t be deceived, this kit is a huge improvement on the original cylinder and will revolutionise the effectiveness of these early shaft scooters on modern roads.

Unlike the vast majority of other performance kits, GT kits are completely retro fit-able, meaning there are no changes to engine cases or frames, the sanctity of the original scooter is not disturbed.

The same cylinder will also fit models A & B and with a bit of creative exhaust work they can fit E & F models if the mood takes you.

I have a waiting list for interested parties. Drop me a message with your contact details if you’re new and want to be on it.

Prices and kit spec will follow shortly

On some other news: I'm changing storage units and have got rather a lot of stuff to move (which I really want to avoid the heavy lifting and space). consequently there is a special offer on Rotax and EVO engine packages for a limited time. Until end of August there's £700 discount of the items below. If the legendary Rotax builds have ever been on your mind then now's the time, they'll never be this price again.

A little bit been going on at Gran Turismo HQ recently. Firstly the Maestro Steve Holt has been ferreting around with my Rotax twin engine and a spare Spanish frame I've had kicking around for awhile. The result is this GRP tubbed GP with my own anti-dive hydraulic brake set up (don't roll your eyes, the seat is being changed). The scooter will be road legal and is built for a bit of fun and maybe do the odd sprint. There's a few more jobs to do, bit of plumbing and build a custom loom to make. There are anther 2 engines like this and I won't get round to putting them in a scooter so if you've got the spirit of adventure and good budget get in touch.
