Possible Rebuild
Posted: Tue May 12, 2015 2:37 pm
Hi All,
I am putting together the final to-do list for the restoration and am turning my attention to the engine
Its on about 100k with no record of a previous rebuild head pressures are currently
1 - 165
2 - 150
3 - 150
4 - 145
5 - 150
6 - 160
if i am to get the head done and the engine is out for the respray i might as well get it re-built
what are your thoughts on what should be done to a late mk1 2000 on an estate?
the next question is the who should do it? I have never re-built an engine before an not sure i have the time so any recommendations?
cheers
