Miguel Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Either that car is jinxed or you are; not great news. On the plus side you found your plumbs down the front of your shorts and stopped talking about all this chucking in the towel in malarky;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Which valves were they? Looks like 6? Is 6 the rear? Looks like intake on the left. Edit: scratch that. Right looks the same lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Which valves were they? Ferrea, but valves do not just fall apart, they get knocked apart, prob a long chain of events, these are prob quite brittle which is why the head came off as opposed to bending.

Suprash Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Its hard to keep the love, just 1 decent run would have made the difference but this is just hard work. I need to get the enthusiasm back and save some money up dude, one decent meeting would have given me some incentive but it seems like I am not destined to drive that car John, I know exactly how you feel mate, Im there myself at the moment with mine, 6 months in just trying to get a ready and working car, and when I do, when I think its all over, the engine goes chocolate on me. But you gotta rely on the people around you mate, gotta give it some time to get over things, things always seem better the next day, look at me, your offer really knocked me for 6, you didnt have to, but its a massive incentive to keep pushing in the direction I want to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Huntley Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Ouch that looks expensive. Looks like new head + Valves, block (Unless you can bore it out to .40 over) and piston time. [sAD][/sAD] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
