pleased i didnt say anything about the plans as ive now dropped them.

ive found away of getting a house and keeping the car but it means toning down the planned mods :(

so now only going 1.9 and keeping current turbo setup.

no real progress due to a mad piss up in scotland, weekend just gone

hgonna strip down engine once ive got the new bits and bobs

Cool mate. 1.9 on 28RS with internals will still be a total animal. And there's nothing like owning your own home, it rocks.

Just glad your keeping the bus.

cheers mate.

originaly it was car or house. so i decided to sell the car...then it went ba ba ba bang so i said "hey, what the hell, **** the house ill just live in the car" and came up with a great idea of 450bhp.

now ive found an idea which believe it or not is very sensible....PHhhA!!! for me anyway :)

this thread may die for a few weeks untill i get bits so for now...over and out

Yep, wel and truely dead mate, is the head ok. maybe worth putting valve guides in as well, bent valves may have damaged them.
