| Got the head back from the engineers today. Completely rebuilt with heavier valve springs, valve seats redone and ported/polished both intake and exhaust. ![]() ![]() ![]() My crank has been ordered from along with a few other goodies such as engine mounts, new water pump and EVO III oil pump. Have also ordered new custom 95mm forged pistons from Top-end Performace. Being made with a CR of 8:1.1 and will received a high heat ceramic coat treatment. Also ordered ARP head studs and a Cometic MLS head gasket. All should be here in about 8 weeks, as it takes 5-6 weeks to make them (pistons). Turbo is being sorted now and should be here in about 3 weeks. Then everything will go back to Simon to be re-assembled before going back into the car and then off to Exotic Exhaust's to have the custom ceramic coated manifold, dump pipe, Tial wastegate, blow off valve (plumbed back into the exhaust) and all plumbing done. Also getting a PWR intercooler and radiator fitted at the same time. Anyway thats enough for now. Keep you posted. Cheers Dave

| Dave - do you wax or shave? I've been thinking about electrolosis, but I'm not sure whether that will make my ankles more aerodynamic to take me a size lower in my Sparco race boots... |
