Looks a bit like a double sided Morini brake with the fins at the leading top edge.

But being made now! May not be as stupidly expensive as the others!

They'll all bloody expensive!!
I'm still debating putting the 4LS front end on the 550 as I prefer the drum to disc.
PROGRESS UP TO DATE HERE
Hope to get it running this month and done next month. Depends on weather and if (what!) goes wrong!!

The soda blasting made a big difference to the crankcases without marking them or having to strip them apart either. I just blocked the inlets & outlets and put tape etc on all other holes. Used the home made blaster (OK), the finished off with a spot blaster from machine mart. I'd post pics but I can't on here. I'll have to put it all on a website when it's up and running.
I'm not going to use it on the carbs, they're going in the ultrasonic cleaner this week. Hopefully I can try for an engine start then!
