just painted everything and cleaned it up. had a visual look and it seemed like its had some work done not so long ago although the are no papers for it. its a coscast too a very quiet engine even from cold.

ive had the turbo re-con'd, new atuator, lightened fly-wheel, new clutch and release bearing, all new gaskets through out, new cambelt, rollers and tensioner, new water pump and oil pump.

alright mate, a coscast is the xe/let head that cosworth designed. its far better than the normal gm head as it does'nt go porous and a better all arounder
