The inevitable has happened, engine internals dont bodge haha. Its comming out this weekend and having a complete strip down. The rods will then be passed onto a friend (if the price is right) to be built into a fully reconditioned block and head. I want to have it sorted by the end of the month so I can run her to uni on a classic policy and put a new estate derv wagon on my actual insurance. Commence operation 'blown up for the 3rd time'  :laugh:

Right, rigged up my truck to her to keep turning her over to see what would happen as I was pretty certain that I was putting in a fresh engine anyhow so had nothing to loose. Turns out the started I got off egay was f**ked. May have to grab a recon methinks. Anyhow, tappets are about f**ked and pretty sure the head gasket hasnt sealed correctly as she pushed out alot of white smoke. Anyhow, here is a vid
