My intention was to just finish the head rebuild tonight - and start putting the car back together over the weekend.
I couldn't stop at that though, so far this evening I've done:
* Head fitted, bolted on, torqued
* Camshafts and followers (all 16 :D ) fitted
* Cam pulleys fitted
* Timing belt kit
* Inlet manifold
* Exhaust manifold
* Loom routed into the right places
* General crap reconnected, such as fuel lines, clips, hoses etc
* Spark plugs
To do -
* Fit camcover
* Fit coil pack
* last few electrical connectors
* Throttle body
* LPG hose and vacc connections
* Alternator and aux belt
Should be fired in in a couple of hours of work, tomorrow

Roughly -
Exhaust downpipe (four nuts)
Throttle body, inlet manifold, camcover
camshafts, followers, sprockets
cambelt kit and aux belt
It sounds a lot but in reality, it is an easy job on the 4 pot :y
