  4. Make sure the corresponding bit with their folds and such are in the condition you require before you remove bits from your car ... Cut the bits from the parts car first and be generous with the donor so you can trim and adjust suit to your keeper.

  16. ...in went a fresh set of Chrome Moly rings and the head was decarbonised.
  17. Well i love long projects. This is not one. Dale bought an N42/N42 off Dimitri and we stripped the cylinder head off on the weekend, hmmmm not bad condition with a fair amount of Carbon on the valves.
