If you're using a Cometic brand gasket, you might want to give them a call and ask about using the copper spray.

I am normally thoroughly disappointed with myself and how my cars turn out because of you, Mtriple. I get a car done and think about the process you go through when building one of yours and then realise I cut corners and should have done it once, done it right (even if it does take you a few years :P )

Also great pads, the BRIAN factory is right around the corner from my work. Been there a few times when I played at Uni for a few of the goalies to get fitted.Originally posted by Simon SWhen a dream is a dream for too long - it becomes a fantasy..

We got started a little late today but progress was made. Head is on, timing belt is on, and valves adjusted. Blunt stopped by to assist with the lube and as you can imagine, work slowed to a crawl. Good times had nonetheless, big thanks to our buddy Pete for helping out. And Blunt to of course....

All in all, we had a good time. Timing belt proved to be the biggest challenge with the MLS gasket causing the head to sit just a bit higher than the stock HG. Had to get a little creative with the tensioner in order to get it to work.
More updates tomorrow hopefully...Last edited by Mtriple; 08-29-2017, 03:16 PM.Originally posted by Simon SWhen a dream is a dream for too long - it becomes a fantasy..
