getting in done at a workshop i dont have all the tools to pressure test and shave the head

[benough]

I took all mine off. You just need a socket set and some hex bits.

I have the head serviced by a place.

ohok might see if i can take it all apart while its down there, save on some labour and good for the experience haha but ill definately be letting them put it all back

this is the car by the way, slowly tidying her up with alot of helpful bits from wade shes slowly getting respectable again

never did get top marks in computer class.. haha you got one you feel like parting with robin?

[benough]

Looks pretty tidy Dubdan.

Some pointers if I may.

Don't take the throttle body off the intake manifold and don't undo the c-clips on the exhaust, just unbolt if from the catalytic convertor

Also get the airbox out and tap out the silencer trumpet with a hammer. You get a lot more airflow and a nice induction noise on full throttle
