    16v_paddy's bent Naples unbending & F7R rebuild

    I've had the bores measured today and the good news is that the block hasn't had a re-bore, it is a bit worn but not excessively, so I'll be ordering some 83mm pistons & getting the block re-bored to fit them :D

    Remaps and cylinder heads

    You'll need a new head gasket, new head bolts & a cam belt, big(ish) job but not too difficult to tackle yourself and afaik the ecu should be a straight swap
