Stonehenge was built faster than progress with my car... I now have a pair of heads, skimmed, valves lapped in, new stem seals. Assembled. Ready to fit. Next I need to prep the block for the chap that's going to pull the liners and replace the seals. |

Ben I'll second Patrick. It's always interesting to see commentary and pics, so if you have time to put them up I know a lot of us would be interested to see them. Regards Geoff |

Whoever pulls the liners better know what they are doing or you could lose your block for scrap. Please heed this caution. There have been many a block cracked as a consequence of liners being pulled. |

Omar's warning must be heeded. A read of Tee one Topics and the workshop manual is a must. only alternate liners can pulled otherwise the main bearing bridges will snap and scrap the block. The shop must be made aware of this. |
