Ive decided to call it a day (its persisting down) but ive got the cam cover gaskets done and the breathers cleaned out and rebuilt as far as the plenum, ive also drilled the two broken bolts from the exhaust that snapped, so next weekend should see the Elite back on the road :y

I woke this morning feeling like I had been 10 rounds with Tyson just shows im very out of condition and getting a bit long in the tooth for rolling around on the floor, but after a nice soak in the bath a cool beer and a weeks rest I should be fighting fit again (yeah right) ::)

Certainly does look different now to how it did last time I saw it!

I like your multi-colored path though - brings back memories of my old 8v rebuild days  :D

Will have to see what its like when you've got it all done  :y
