Small update for you lot, coming along slowly but surely now.
Went to check on the progress of the engine today, i was really impressed just by looking at it.

Before



And after, hard to believe it's the same.



I was down dropping off the head, which Mr. Rstoughy very kndly helped me out with, and also a set of wheels, now equipped with tyres as of this morning.
Head as good as new, didn't even need skimmed!




Should get the engine back in the next couple of weeks, would be sooner but I am busy and so is the guy doing the engine so i that suits us both, petty it can't be sooner though.
