Number 5 pot this time. Quite suprising as i would have put money on number 1.

Yes number 2 at York, then number 5 at the pod. Should have it all back together with a new elring this afternoon.

Cheers guys. Lets hope the 10 hours in the garage yesterday was worth it.
As long as it gets me there and back is the main thing. Racing will be a bonus

Just wondering DB. Are your cylinder head bolts stretching to blow a gasget? Perhaps a correct torque re tightening of the bolts after a normal warm up before and after a drag sprint may prevent these failures in future and ease the 10 hour replacement stints. I read somewhere that new bolts should be used when a cylinder head is lifted. Your heads have been lifted a few times now. When did you last use new head bolts? Just a thought.
