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".
