New headgasket set

New FORGE dump valve

And finally my new -31 actuator can finally (once rebuilt) hold my boost properly


So yep with all that woke up this morning big hang over with my bro and decided to go brave it in the cold garage to start putting engine together.
first off gugen pins out all the old pistons as i need the old conrods, to then find out that the standards are pressed in so that stopped that so there gonna be off to engine shop asap.
after this we came inside for half hour then realised i could start fitting oil pump and crank, went to have a look in my big burton box full of bits to find out i forgot to get the main bearings on my last order DAMN IT!!

so guess what its all on holddddddd..................again
