Hi Peter, Thanks for the reply! Yeah im really happy with it, definitely worth the long journey! Im going to be removing the alloy sump and timing cover at some point so i will check for the baffles and will also check for the vernier cam sprocket which would be nice!

Hi Guys, Hope everyone's doing well. Unfortunately upon cleaning the head up this weekend to send off the Peter Burgess (for the ecotune work), I have noticed a crack between cyl 1 and 2 (see pics below). I emailed some pics to Peter himself and he thinks the head is toast. This wouldn't worry that ...

Hi Peter, Thanks again for the reply. Sorry yes you're right, ill need cam followers regardless. Did you see the picture of the wear that I attached? Each pushrod is worn in the same way, its an odd wear pattern is it not? Yeah i have read about running the engine at 2000+ revs for at-least 20 minut...
