Sent the head off to Clearwater Cylinder for a rebuild and the injectors off to WitchHunter for a cleaning. All-in-all for the age and the miles, the head looked in decent shape, but one of the exhaust valve stems was damn near worn down to the keeper. Looking forward to getting back a head and injectors that look factory fresh.

Got an alignment. centered the wheel as it was crooked as all hell after the alignment. Though that was my fault as the wheel wasn't centered when I put it on.

Installed my junkyard-find Bosal Anhangerkupplung/Trailer hitch. It looks hideous but at 50euro for the complete setup incl. plug-n-play harness, I can't complain.
Found that my battery box had rusted through to my Valence. Will fix that tomorrow, maybe....and I don't even have a battery back there. F'in leaky gaskets. Then I'm gonna underbody-coat that whole area inside the fenderwell/battery tray area.
drove it hard. I think my clutch *might* be beginning to slip after some runs to near 100. I scared myself pretty good with some knarly wheel spin in 2nd, lol.
