Peter T Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Has the steel crank been re-ground? and how much by? Would you sell without the Jenveys? Thanks. R500 Mango Madness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Walker Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 Hi Peter, No the crank has not been re-ground, its was in perfect condition at the March 2006 re-build. Yes, I am sure that we can come to some arrangement about the Jenveys. Cheerio Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackb_ms Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Rob How old is the Emerald? Do you know if it is the kind which can drive a VVC? If yes can I have it? Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Walker Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 Jack, Read my post, the Emerald will be offered first to any purchaser of the engine. As it stands the Emerald will not run the VVC mechanism, I am not sure if Karl at Emerald has finished the Firmware yet? I know that he has been working on it for sometime.

jackb_ms Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Rob I have read your post, and like Malcom I will wait for the outcome of the sale of the engine. And yes, there are a few VVC which are control by an Emerald Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Walker Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 Jack, That is good news. If the firmware is now available then the ecu can be flashed/upgraded as its is the latest 32 bit April 2004. I have noted your interest.
