Judging by the hone marks and US bearings, I'm guessing you'll have 1000km of running in to do, eh?
Running in sucks, it takes so long and all you want to do is stick your boot in it to see how much better it is.




bored out 40 thou and ground 20/10, so yes there will be a run-in procedure, might do a few coast runs to rack up some k's

Is that a Corona centred oil pick up I see in that timing gear shot?

The lower chain tensioner looks a little different from my memories, what's the white looking stuff around the shaft of it?


looks the same as my other 4 tensioners, they are spacers, u throw them on so the chain tensioner doesnt have so much slack to take up on start up ect ect

I hope it works out really well and there aren't any more bolwn head gaskets.

Did you think about o-ringing the block?
