Oddball87 Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Also last night i started to put new under seal on.

It makes a massive difference in the engine bay look IMO. There's loads of room under the scuttle panel for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddball87 Posted December 29, 2011 Author Share Posted December 29, 2011 (edited) Had a look over the engine i bought off magictorch. I took the sump off and had a quick look inside the crank has been knife edged, the cylinders have been re honed and has HKS pistons. Head has JUN Cam gears,HKS 264 cams and some port work done. oil pump, water pump, cam belt tensioner cam belt are as new. This engine will be a stop gap untill i build my other.
