Okay so im still waiting on my head bolt tool to arrive so i did not get a chance to take the head off but i went as far as i could before i have to take the head off.. so here is some photos of my progression so far..















NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




This makes me wanna cry... are they buggered?? Ive read mixed opinions on rusty cams.. some people say throw them away and get new ones. and others say take to it with some very fine sand paper.. or wd40 and a rag. the list goes on. i had a go and gave them a light, one directional scrub with a light Brillo pad and some lubrication.. i didn't wanna over work them, but there still some residual staining. Feels smooth to the touch to most parts and some are still a little rough.










I am aware that if these are still okay, that they will probably require a micro polish. If all else fails i'll pull the cams out of my AGU thats already in the car when i do the swap over.




on with the strip down..






























And today when i arrived home..............








The first wave of parts arive ))

It's a home build going to take it all on myself, I'm pretty confident.. It's not my first time playing with a motor hehehe
