Re: pump

Kenny, I appreciate the input but my budgets set. That being said if my oil pumps in spec I'm £100 up, if it needs replaced rest assured it'll get replaced.

Re: Rev1 Engine Rebuild Advice

I have no issue in re using the oil pump (I did in mine) but not without checking it as per the BGB. I do think the headbolts are a wise investment for 400hp. Stud and bolt has a far stronger clamping force. What's the bgb checklist for the pump out of interest? Ok mate, will look into the head stu...

Re: Rev1 Engine Rebuild Advice

Fair enough, ha! If there's a solid reason why ARP's are the way forward Id happily look into it.

Re: rod bolts

torque the rod bolts & slacken them off three times if you're not using a bolt stretch gauge, also you don't mention an oil pump. Cheers Kenny, will do, I'm led to believe the oil pumps are bulletproof so wasn't planning on changing it. I'd like to use a stretch gauge but when it's £150 for a g...

Removing the cambelt side drive shaft to replace oil seal. I've taken the hub off. I've taken the bolts out the bracket that fixes to the block so I can slide out the whole thing in one go.
