Nothing, just put two and two together and got 5 instead of 4. Thought you and rat may have been wheeling and dealing..

yep being a tight arse sometimes doesn't work

first motor i knew wasn't permanent

the second that i borrowed, the guy said it was a bit tappety that was an understatement

pulled rocker covers of 2 bent pushrods 1 extremely, problem stuck valve

was gunna stick cam & lifters in but with the stuck valve who knows where it will end

all should be good but seeing as though i had already ordered cam, lifters & timing chain thought it's only couple more bucks and i'll get rings & bearings and put the 330 in just have to hope now that they don't do a capasity test when i get engineers and go to RTA

Goodluck with it mate !!! 330 ... thats gonna sound very nice !

Doubt they will do a bore test mate , never heard of it being done before for the cert. Only if there is an accident and the car looks "dodgey".

Rat,

build em up matt and flash,
red 6 to an 8,
with no time to waste,
kool as F(*&k
He runs amuck,
show em off at rat rod day,
With a kool rig time to play,
No FC's
there a bloody disease!!!
Give him an EK,
Its the only way.
