Got to get the na8 re done to na10 fittings in the rocker covers as they may be to snall for my catch cans .why fit such snall ones wgen everyone else uses 10 .he had tgem sitting there and instead of ordering new ones he used them .tony did say that they would be ok up to my power levels but thought the 10 would be better to use .

I see that you're still a bit of a n00b at forum'ing... close enough haha

-10 fittings is a good idea for the catch can.

Epic adventure to drive 3 hours for it - but always going to be well worth the effort when the guy at the other end has a great rep :)

Yes it helps when you can trust the person .take a look at the cover the other guy painted with silver paint and then tryed to convince me tgat he got the sump and front cover sand blasted .I said to him I am no fool that us not blasted. He said it is bkasted and tgat I knew nothing about that 0dd08d831c41132ce1bad1191f34d34a.jpgf5d191a341d03125b953a5b32bee1674.jpg

It's hard to believe what some people will really do to convince you sometimes of their great work... name n shame?

He used my old fg springs in another car that he fixed and lied to me .he could not find the springs anymore but I noticed the empty container they were in at the car he was changing vakve springs .he then later asked ne for my 5000 klm old ba coilpacjs which I gave him fir nothing to use on the same car he changed the springs over . I akso never got my okd fg spark plugs back .oh well . I bought the guy a set of drill bits and a cordless drill as all he had was a old electric drill so he could drill the bearings for the oil fead to the pistons .cost about $ 250 plus 1178e5781b272c87db4b037fc043ec2b.jpg97420974d83f456765cb6630b4509f87.jpgI also gave him $100 in advance before he started .all the money he got was cash .so no tax or gst does he have to pay .

You fkn what? Bought him a drill and bits so he could rifle drill the rods??? Im not sure what you mean exactly? In any case nothing about that seemed odd hey?

Anyway I really hope this ends with a good result for you mate. Sounds like your on track again..

You have to drill a hole into the bearings so that the oil for the spool rods can travel up to lubricate the top bush of the gudgen pin . True story

No .left the drill and drill bits there .good set of sutton ones .yes I should have but did not want to start a war .was happy to get the engine home that was all I cared about .

 

After 8 plus weeks him having the engine all I wanted to have it back home .when I said to him that I want to pick up the engine he said no you can pick it up tommorow .he done more work on it as I belive he had to pull it apart and do something to it as I warned him I was going to take it to TBRE . He was very pissed of at me
