other than fix up the front garden, im gonna be reeeeee-building this:


Think i may have to bore it out to a 2.1 as there is a slight lip on the thrust side of cylinder 2,
whats the norm for a rebuild? ie parts?

mate's had his XE bored out to 2.1, running wacky cams of some description, and it's upto about 170 I think. Not sure, so don't jump down my throat to correct me.
