and get yourself a good quality sealer/instant gasket,don't rely on gaskets alone as they often leak on an a series...i rallied one for a few years,its a pain to have to strip it down again just to fix a leak because of a poor quality gasket

Chris.
Before you spent a lot time and effort on the engine and gearbox are you sure that the frame is suitable. I know that you have added plates and bracing but after looking carefully at your pics, the original construction gives me some cause for concern.
I really do not wish to seem negative, just want you to end up with a good safe trike.
