Time for an update.

Well I managed to get the engine from my old garage to my garage at home:)

So I have started to strip it down, I have sent the timing cover and rad coweling to powder coat and have started to prep the engine for painting. Going to paint it bmc green.

Carried out a compression test on the motor 180 - 170 - 130 - 180 so I have an issue to resolve. I have taken the head off to replace the head gasket, head bolts I will remove the valves clean them up and lap them in. I have also got stainless steel mainfold studs and thermostat studs:)
