Not sure I'd call it hard work, more like 3rd hand Ikea furniture without the instructions

Done a bit this afternoon after tea.

Rods built up



First one in after also checking ring gaps



And the rest



Rods bolts torqued up the required 3 times to 50lbft





The sump is now on. It's a spare as the drain plug was stripped in Lito's.

Tomorrow morning I'll be doing the belt and water pump, as well as dropping the head back on.

Yeah good old ultratune with the sump plug, ive wrestled with it twice now, next move was a piggie back, that would be the go, but if you have a sump all good. Carlos be sure to come round after she is hummin
