How come you havent got the head on it yet?

Serious question, its just i always like to compeltely build the engine up out of the car first of all and then install it as a complete unit, much easier to get to everythign when its on an engine stand.

Porkie yes i am doin the head now.

Chip...i always put head on after i install the bottom end as it is easier to put the bottom end in first...done it both ways...so i know how i view it.

Head is hopefully goin on tommorrow just waiting for WRC gasket.

Matt imo the outer 4 need less clamp than the middle 6 hence why i choose 6...although all bolts/nuts are done up to the same torque figure BUT the long stud are semi stretch so more clamp than equivilant torqued bolts which are full stretch.

Phil the tightening figures I have (from SCS) are:

Inner 6 (long studs) 90 LBS/ft

Outer 4 (stretch bolts) 95 LBS/ft

Those figures make sense??????
