So since my last update I purchased some steel rods for the zetec to fit while the engines out. So put it on the engine stand and drained the oil and the oil was grey removed the sump to find all 4 of my under piston oil jets and been hit by the pistons and broken off. They then ended up in my oil pick up pipe, but not before getting thrown around inside my block a fair bit.
Michael Clarke then went about removing the pistons fromthe rods and found that they had heat seized themselves in and once removed the gudgeon pins were fucked lol so now am waiting for a delivery of pec pistons and cat cam valve springs from devil developments. As for getting the car to central day, the chances are slim now lol
