    headgasket on a 19 16v - help

    ideally you want to change belt+pulleys etc, but it isnt necessary....but i would. its probably best to check the head for any warping. use an engineers rule and lye on edge from one corner of the head diagonally accross to the other. use a feeler gauge to check clearance. if in doubt, take it...

    Would you pay 5k for a Williams

    id go for the 1 in the link for £3900 generally, alloys like that=boyracer=ragged IMO A williams is worth the kind of money you have (5k) if you want/anyone wants to pay it....which they do.

    Williams Crank Shaft

    use a die-grinder, you can pick one up from machine mart for like £15...than you just need a compressor and some cutting bits!

    Williams Crank Shaft

    It will fit after you have taken some of the material away from the insid eof the block/crankcase that fouls the crank due to the larger webs. Conrods are the same, just pistons that are different....different pin height to allow for extra stroke so piston doesnt sit proud of the deck at TDC

    Williams Crank Shaft

    Its the same as a 1.9 diesel....plenty of those in scrappies.....so only as much as you want to pay for it. youd need the pistons aswell to fit it in an F7P + modification of the inside of the block.

    Engine blown on rolling road

    If the rollers seized, which i very much doubt, it would either: Break traction, jump off the rollers, clutch slip/fail, or at worst the gearbox would fail. What was the oil pressure like?? May have seized one of the big-ends. For a con-rod to fail it would either be due to over-rev, or...

    Engine blown on rolling road

    do you not understand that?....or are u being sarcy?

    Engine blown on rolling road

    Longer stroke=more piston travel. therefore piston has to travel further in same crank angle=faster. therefore peak piston velocity is greater=greater inertial loading

    Clio`s crap in the wet/ice
