Just for your info i have never had the head off that car mate, so it must have been a ticking time bomb waiting to happen just unlucky for you it has all happened after buying the car.
The car never missed a beat while i owned her and as you know from the test drive car was spot on.
Also info on the wheels cant remember what make they are but was brought off a fella on here so someone must know what they are.
I just had a look through your old posts and see that you done the tappets but didnt remove the head so fair play mate wasnt you then.
Yeh was fine on the test drive giving it stick so dont doubt you mate. it was obv fine with the odd bit of boost as the head wasnt getting hot but i cained it for a good 3 minutes out of town and onto the bypass and it let go on full boost in 3rd. At least it hasnt killed the block else id be screwing lol!
