Very slowly LOL, went to cheam motors the other day to order the left side rocker cover gasket, inlet manifold gaskets and the rubber o-ring seals for in the middle of the block. The conrods are also on the crank so thats ready to go. I also measured the gaps between the cam lobes and tappets and hopefully figure out correct sizes, it does get a little confusing. Are these the correct gaps 0.20 for the Inlet and 0.25 for the exhaust... Because i noticed that on the info i have it says that upto 98 they are self adjusting (hydrolic) and they don't look like they are...

Its all scary stuff, i just hope it works at the end....

will check valve clearances in the morning, would be worth checking the clearances once the heads are torqued down. what heads are you using?

also would be worth checking/cleaning out the I.C and pipe work just incase theres any crap from the turbo in them.

I am using the standard heads and i have torqued up the cam caps, changed the valve stem oil seals and lapped in the valves. Most of the I.C pipes are already off but i will check them and clean the again.

Cheers for that Jaffa
