A certain workshop i'n town decided to leave a cam cap not loose and it was sent to oil pump school. The reasoning behind me saying that this place Is full of dodge. All good tho, thinking of a spool 2.8kit. That or a freshen up and new pump ect. Gonna aim for A 10 this time.

well, completely torn down, mains are pretty well ted, one big end is ted and the rest are suspect so im glad i got it quick, crank looks to be A O-K, might get away with a hone, just gonne get my mic's out and have a look in the daylight tomorow, head looks to be in pretty good nick, still need to dis-assemble it yet, number 6 slug looks to have possibly ingested a washer or something similar, taking the exhaust housing off the turbo tomorow to inspect in detail before i go and murder this workshop owner. On a brighter note, back to work on monday

Did you decide on a spool stroker or standard rebuild?

[33GTRV]

handbrake decided im going a forged rebuild, apparently were going on a holiday at the end of the year so i have a limited budget god dammit >.<

[33GTRV]
