Your right there mate!
I hadnt mentioned it yet because i'm just deciding what to do with the cam thats in it (brand new just ran in standard Cam/lifters) might want to fit them in my new head, and then it's going on ebay!
It's done about 5000miles since a full rebuild, including Stainless Steel valves, and porting etc.

If nickrsturbo1990 can wait a couple of days it will be up for grabs!
