I have decided to go the full Zetec route when the restoration is done.

So the 1,9 lump came apart today as am selling certain bits such as the inlet manifold, head with cam and vernier pulley. The cam cover is going too.

Exhaust manifold off


My T34 with .63 cossie housing, 6 degree cut back blades, 360 degree thrust bearing and maram shaft is staying with me


Head off time and I really am not mechanically minded but thought it really can't be that hard to take bits apart. Out came the Haynes manual to make sure I did bits in the right order




As you can see in this picture one of the valves is white as the headgasket has survived but there is a small gap just below it on the 2nd bore from the right.
Thought I had a suspected head gasket failure but was close. It was the block



Guess this will be going in the bin then

These bits are for sale as a whole if you or anyone knows of someone who wants them.
Bits are all modified for cossie management and have been running on my car.
