So been a while but heres a wee update from todays work. went this afternoon and picked up my new head bolts and started stripping my cams out the head and put my new head gasket and bolts in. After 2 & a half quick ass hours of workin flat out on it i got the new gasket, headbolts, inlet mani, timing belt, all the pipe work, fuel rail and injectors, coilpack and the exahust/turbo side on but not bolted the mani yet. just need to fit my rad and fan, pipe work oil catch can and pipes and put oil and water in now and do a final check and tidy up and all should be good to fire the car up again. few other bits and bobs to do still but nearly on the road lol. heres a wee pic of the bay after todays work. Before. after. any comments welcome!!
