| Head gasket went last night so i wasnt a happy bunny, when i stopped sulking and realised it was a gift from god i got on with the job. Had the head off within an hour and inspected it, can still see honing marks in the block so i reckon its been rebuilt and the carbon buildup is very very little. Found out the head has had a light porting job on the intake side and has a GS2H kent cam which made me pretty happy. Head is now going to have some very heavy port and polishing done intake and exhaust side, gonna polish up the head so it looks like new, decoke, polish the valves up etc so gonna have some very heavy headwork, i figure while its mostly in bits im gonna get my flywheel lightened, maybe a new clutch, paint my block, gearbox and do some work in the bay. Gonna get it all done and sorted for the bury meet hopefully so watch this space for progress pics.
Edit: Oh and of course fit my lovely new stainless 4 branch(cheers lewis) _________________

| well fixed my head and just about managed to get to the cambridge meet with a few people left there. Heres what it looks like all built up :

Also new rimmage was longggggggggggggggg overdue as those bkracing things looked awful, so after changing my mind 6 million times(sorry lee) i went for the rims i always wanted in the first place since seeing them. So here they are.





















Thats enough pics i think  _________________
