my advise shaun as i've just done mine get ya head checked cleaned and all valves lapped back in u might find it'll need exhaust guides to as these wear out,

also have the exhaust manifold machined flat as you'll find it will have warped with the heat and won't seal correctly on the new gaskets

i think i've got a couple of spare exhaust bolts in my shed if u need any?

while your at it get on the phone to roose motorsport and order up some new matrix and oil cooler water pipes just so u know the jobs rite as they are a bitch to change when the head is on and a good chance the rubber has perished by now anyhow

I also fitted my uprated engine mounts while head was off cause this was easier to do

If you need any help give me a txt as i've just done mine 3 weeks ago

Plus if u take ya head and exhaust manifold and inlet to TOMMY Lewthwaites in whitehaven he has the tools now to fit the guides as he made 1 to do my head on my Saph he will also soak the parts in his acid bath and get rid of all the nasty carbon deposits on the inlet and head
