metric i would think - But you might find some strange "fine" or "course" threads

That lazer tool's gash

Sealant behind the seal?

Is it acceptable to reuse both items on am engine that's only just been put together and not yet run?

Afternoon guys, I have just come to inspect my rocker cover prior to refitting the head and have noticed this damage on the end, If you look where the cam will sit closest to the camera you can see a piece is missing. Is this going to cause the rocker cover to be scrap you can it still be...

Not that I can see, maybe I just need to keep going? I left the head filled over night and lost perhaps 1-2ml out of two cylinders, so its not all escaping! Its not pouring out my any means just a little seep - I will have another go later I suppose!

Bloody valves! Some of the inlet valves are still passing a small amount despite this being the second time I have lapped them! Each valve head has a continuous dull ring all the way round so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong? Maybe invest in one of those drill valve lapping tools and give it...

Some red diesel will be ok to do the test wont it? thinners is bloody expensive!

You cant really see much in the exhaust ports because of the carbon build up! I will have another look later on but I think im going to have to spend a little more time on it!

I feared that might be the case! what a ball ache!

Anyone? someone must have some experience with this?

I was under the impression it didn't matter aslong as it was searching?

Filled all of the dishes in the head with valves and springs installed, filled with thinners and over the period of about 3-4 hours I think I might have lost a ml or so Is that acceptable as a good seal?

What's acceptable as leaking from the head when checking for valve fit with solvent after valve replacement? I am ahuming none what so ever?

Oh and can you buy the plastic part of the cam cover? mine has been taken out!

Yeh got another one with a slipped belt but I don't want to spend a fortune replacing valve guides if possible. How much are we saying is too much then guys? Or just check them and find the ones that are worse (if that makes sence)

Is it simply a case of sticking a valve in and seeing if it has any side to side movement? Regards Sam

Yes yes yes I should have ordered the genuine one! but that still does not answer my question! Is there and easy way to tell the two idlers apart? Cheers Sam

Too late now! iv ordered it - how can I tell the ph1 and ph2 kits apart? different sized tensioners?

Top stuff! Bloody msa!

When I built my rally car I asked the msa about this, I was told that to get a log book I would need to have one as its an msa rule. Bloody stupid I know but you may find you need one for a logbook. (you can't just take the fuel line off the rail either)

Do you still need a dry break fuel sampling device?

How does angle tightening work?

I rallied in the 205 challenge and that had it about right. My idea of a budget championship would be something like: Standard ecu Air con delete bilstien b14's 15,s with a control tyre Standard brakes with say any of the mintex pad range One of the stainless exhausts...

What do you do if a captive nut breaks? What's the plan of attack?

Looks good - what spoiler is that?

Has any one got any pictures of the 172cup/ 182 wishbones fitted with balljoints to give me an idea of the standard locations? I'm going to modify mine again to reduce castor slightly but also rubbing

Pretty much what I thought really, it's only 1- 1.5 mm of room so I will do the bolts up tight and go from there. Rubbing is now my next battle

It's likely that all New ph2 wishbones are now the same spec I would think.
