So any idea's what other seals gaskets etc i'll need and a guess at the price?
If it isn't going to be mega expensive i'll start pulling it to bits this weekend

Why are you taking the head off anyway? You don't need to take the head off to change the turbo.
I think a Payen gasket from a motor factors is around £20, I think they are £35 from Ford, plus you will need new bolts, get these from Ford regardless. I think an Exhaust Manifold gasket is around £10 and the same for studs, roughly.

Christian, i see you say to use the Ford bolts regardless, is there that much difference between them?
And just wondering really why don't you use ARP Studs instead?

Will be looking at ARP's perhaps next time the head comes off.![Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
