So the headgasket had gone well and truly, on all 4 cyls and the water jacket... set to work fixing:

While it was in bits, in seemed pointless rebuilding it to a totally stock motor, so had some headwork done and a few mods to keep me safe with big revs, and ultimately boost, inc head studs, rod bolts, uprated big end bearings:

Also while it was in bits, ditched the inlet resonator and fitted a bung:

Fitted a Rallye aux belt kit and ditched all the aircon bits and pieces:

and rebuilt:

Decided, as ultimately I'll be pushing a fair bit more power (it already flies with circa 200hp) some better stoppers were in order....

Finally got it all finished so decided to give him a good old clean...
