Bugger, sorry to hear that. Love the sneaky exhaust though.

well motor and box is out as it had a leaky rear main as well so ill fix that while im at it, so now do i build the whole motor with forgies, cams and other goodies or do i just skin the head get it back on, hmmm not sure

Just do the repair and get it on the road.

Maybe build a second long motor with all the goodies and take your time. Im sure there will be a few bugs in the "Y" to iron out before you need the extra power...

yeah mate thats what im doing now
just dropped the head of down the engine shop
getting full service, cometic metal head gasket and arp rod bolts for it, so hopefully no more trouble
