Find me some Ca16 cams and I'll use them! Ca18 ex cam on the inlet side need adjustable cam gears to get timing perfect so I have read on the interwebs anyway

have that service manual ready Greg.
A printed copy of the pages you need would be ideal.
Bring a bunch of Scrapers,scotch bright, brake cleaner and like an old sheet or something. You wont just be banging into it either, prep is key for Cylinder head installs

Got the block all prepped ready for head installation next weekend. Gave #4 piston a smoothing over so no rough spots now will hopefully be ok
Unbolted water pump just to have a nosey and shit there was a lot of gunk in there! Looks like it might be the original pump
got all the crap out of the block and will get a new one this week. All going well head will be back on next Sunday yay.

Good to see you are progressing dude, even after some bad luck with the motor side of things

oh well, at least you will have piece of mind on the cooling system side of things, next week should be exciting
