120S and 125A camshaft query
Can I replace the camshaft in my 120S with one from a 125A? The one in my 120S is very worn and I have a wrecked 125A I can salvage the camshaft from.

Any cam from a big block or big block derived multi will fit with the exception of the port side cam for twins. That includes the various FG versions.

Go to Horizon Search for Saito M
Thee engine code for the 1.20-S is M, here's a couple of pages of stuff for them. The cam is in stock.

Okc the brits called it a dickie seat and in american english it's called a rumble seat,don't let your imagination run away with you.It's also called a mother in law seat hence it's fully exposed to the airstream rear most position on the vehicle,wind noise is your friend in convertibles and motorcycles.Was up in the hills riding the duke two sundays ago and stopped at a good morning coffee shop.There was a guy in a leather jacket standing in front of me in the coffee line and i noticed a very small square patch sown on the back of his collar.It said 'scream if you want to go faster'

When I was very young my Grandfather had a 1933 model A with a V-8 60. I doubt that he ever went farther from home than 20 miles in it.

My uncle had a 32 Model A. Mom said he had a magneto hooked up to charge the body with electricity when runningand was always calling people over to the car to see if they would touch it. Shocking to say the least! He was an ornery cuss when he was young!

gave a young lady a ride on my ZX11 across the tarmac were i worked. She wanted to know why they called it a crotch rocket and without hesitation we scooted across the tarmac at a pretty good clip. All you could hear was her screaming sloooodoowwwnnn. As we flew by the office.

Saito 90 twin jammed up after sitting for years
I have a Saito 90 twin, the on that looks like the valve covers are Continental. I can't get it turn over a full revolution. No prop attached just turning it by hand. What can I soak it in that will loosen up the crud???
I've opened up the intake and exhaust ports so I can get solvent in the ports. some of the valves are stuck. Any ideas????

Wouldn't that effectively function as a kill switch?

Evendently not but I imagine he would have to isolate body somehow to make it work. I had several people who knew him an my mom tell me about the first time they touched my uncle's car when he was sitting there idling and getting the shock of their lives.
