So, in an ideal world I would never want to see this pipe again…

 .....

I watched Mark remove that pipe in a field somewhere (Newent ???) ..... he'd obviously done it a few times even back then!  ;D ;D

If it needs a new gasket, it's a 2x37mm. You're welcome to one - I can probably find the little packet of them in the garage, if necessary.  :y

Thanks for the offer Stu. I’ll bear that in mind.
At the moment I’m just compiling a list of parts I will need when (if?) everything works out.
Cheers,
Dave

Progress! 1-3-5 head is off.



Slight shiny patches on the inlet valves. Matching shiny on the piston crowns. All others are very dark.


Bores are very, very smooth.

Any damage opinions so far ?

2-4-6 next.

If the valves are still true, then reseat them, if not replace them.

Pistons will take much worse to be actually damaged  :y
