yep, there was some crap in the valve seats where the valves had pounded them in so had the seats re cut and have just cleaned everything

That wasn't too bad then. What are your plans for the air filter? Just not use one on the strip?

some wheels poped up cheap the other day so quick drive to Nottingham yesterday to collect them, these will be used as dyno wheels, loading on/of truck and maybe road wheels if it sees the road again, there 18s, just need to get some cheap tyres for them
test fitted
also primed the engine with oil today , wiped all the plugs out and stuck turbo oil feed in a bag and cranked it till i got good oil pressure and filled the bag, no knocks or bangs from the engine is always a bonus, new turbo should be here next weekend all being well
