1974 Citroën SM IE. First start up, second engine rebuild, in-house by me
10,5 comp JE pistons, conrods and pistons balanced and weight adjusted inside +/- 0,1 grams. Heads got 12 new valve guides, new exhaust valves and new seats on the exhaust. Valve overlap also a tad more aggressive than specified. Waterless coolant (Evans) for better cooling. Everything controlled and measured with special care, enthusiasm and love to this fantastic grand tourer. Almost ready for SmNor21.com event, but use the C6 as stand-in this time...
