What work are you doing on the engine.
Ports look massive so proper 5.0 ones or otherwise known as stage 3 heads.
Very nice.

Nothing under hand
New cam
New VSOS
Valve springs
And sorting some oil leaks

[jojackson4]

Valve stem oil seals

Something has gone bang at some stage of its life
The only evidence I can find

What’s the finger pointing too.
I’m not sure what your showing there?

And why have you left that earth strap on.
That cracks me up for some reason. Your skills include stripping the engine yet won’t take that lead off. Take a pic so you can remember where it goes
Bit of masking tape and label it up, put it in the engine area box of bits

And why do you need Andy boy this weekend. Piss up?

Big A is coming up to see family and Steve Edwards with a rondeau with me with some bits

Not cross bolted. I didn’t realise that.
I wonder why they didn’t?

96 before they started doing it

[jojackson4]

That’s it I think
New mounts for the fuel pump as the old ones dropped off
Corners knocked off
It’s going to Sheffield on Saturday morning for galve spraying and 2k poxxi
Any one see anything that beads doing?

When removing rear crank main seal remove cap and replace T seals too makes fitting that seal a breeze with no chance of dislocating the tension spring , and your sorting another source of oil leaks too

Crucifix seals what’s the best method of installing them?

[jojackson4]

Clutch arm done with the reinforcement plate
New rear seal not turned up yet

Managed to get some other stuff as well
Only taken 5 years so brembo is the new hunt
