Regarding the silicone hoses, I have been looking for ages with no luck so far.
There are plenty out there for the diesel ones kits, individual hoses etc, if you can find a source let me know i'll do the
same.

Are you going to get the valve seats checker out while they are off I highly recommend it if it’s had gas Current stable:

I know what you mean but they can also go on petrol too just not as quickly. I know a place in leads an Cambridge you just need an engine workshop to check it over the kind of place that can skim heads etc id imagine. Current stable:

Btw have you got the heads off yet? Though of an obvious way to check the valves need doing... just look at the valve clearance when you take the rocker covers off - if they are not right then get them done Current stable:

Almost got them off but havent quite got all the chains off yet.

i also need to find a technical listing for re-setting the timing on the rebuild.
