The car is thoroughly in bits now. I've delved deep into the head to remove and replace cam chain tensioner. Not a job for the feint hearted!

Have it all out (tensioner and inlet cam) ready to clean sealing surfaces and start wrestling it back together. Exhaust cam left in situ to retain timing etc.
I plan to have new tensioner in over the weekend. The rocker cover isn't going back on immediately as I'm getting that and inlet manifold powder coated.
I hope to clean up some of the aluminium engine bits that have started going a bit fuzzy. Have some ACF50 grease which I'll apply lightly once they're cleaned up.
I'll also chop in and fit a cheeky vent to arch behind intercooler.
