hey mate good work. timing chain and guides are a pain in the rectum.

why wont you be using the head bolts?

[AusScare]

Lot of work going on there, should turn out well though. Remember to give the engine bay a detail before it all goes back in!

i may use ARP hardware yet, because i'll be raising the compression a wee bit . . . (not just from the gasket)

I'd love to have the bay smoothed! but i'm just not sure i want to tackle that either haha, oooooohwee, i might get jack of looking at all that stupid sealant they use and scrape it all off i hope i dont though; I am however thinking i may paint the bay the same colour as my interior? . . . . it'll at least get a clean . . .

[Alexx]

Bottom end work + wiretuck.....i sense greatness to come

[KI11Z]
