Paint up.

Got the block painted, not the best of jobs, but as I found out on the last motor, by the time you add in blowers / pumps etc, you cant see it anyway, so didnt see much point going overkill with it.

On a sidenote, does anyone have techy data for these motors (torque settings) as there's a few bits on the head I wouldn't mind knowing the correct setting for..

Anyway, paint,



Clean up head studs, and dig out torque lube from back of bench (found it in no time somehow!)



Studs in:


Gasket on:



The moment of truth! :






Cams in:






So head almost done, just need to sort rocker cover out, but there has been a slight technicality involving the farm pressure washer and the plastic, nothing that wont be sorted tomorrow, but not quite there today 

Thanks for reading
