Got some great news today off Jimbo Harvey found some time in his busy schedule to machine my new Mahle pistons to the right comp ratio and add some nice valve cut outs. Also sorted out my con rods too

So the plan is to have it all ready for a week Saturday (12th March) and John and I can fit the engine back into the Focus. Can't wait! Problem is I'm the best man at a wedding the day before....hope I won't have too bad a hangover

I'll get it there, not sure if it'll be in one piece

Must resist buying more crap for it in the meantime and just spend on fuel Speaking of fuel, did you milk the udders?
