    Worked on it some today.

    Going to be sending the head to the machine shop for a 3 angle + new valve stem seals.

    I should note that this is the first time I'm really tearing into an m20. I'm astonished as to how simple these engines really are... I'm discovering slowly just why everyone has such love for them!

    Anyway, I'll let the pics to the talking.









    Getting Vanessa ready for a bunch of suspension work.



    I also painted the block, kept it simple!





    Stay tuned, I'll be taking pics of the finished head in a few days :)

            Sorry guys, nothing yet. Will hopefully drop off head at machine shop tomorrow! This weekend L will be busy so I will be unable to head out there.

                      currently we can't find any cluster rings, but the needle treatment and alpina strip very well may end up on Vanessa. we'll see!

                        Dennis,

                        What did you have done to the head? Looks nice and clean now!

                              Not to shabby :). Same place that did the head for your daily/track rod?

                                Nah, this place is actually a bit more local and a recommendation of Joel's :)



                                Fast turn around, reasonable pricing and the dude is super cool.
