here's some pics

the head is finished now, its been a right pain in the arse, all the valve stem seals have been changed and the valves have been lapped in.

i've got a complete cometic gasket set which includes the head gasket, you can see the new exhaust gaskets in the pics

tomorrow (after work) providing i can get a fuel filter i might try and fire her up providing i can get the head put on OK.
