Engine Rebuild

[Dead Eye]

I got stopped in my tracks for not having a lapping tool of the correct size. Finally got one so should be ready to grind the valves and get them all sorted. I cleaned up the intake and exhaust ports but there is still a bit of crap in the intake ones so I'm thinking a bit of fine wet & dry will do the trick

After that, it will be time to move down the engine and clean up the cylinder block. It's in mostly good condition, so I don't expect it will take long. After that, its on to the pistons. I'm really uncertain as to whether to replace the piston rings or not. On the one hand, it would make sense to do them whilst it's all apart, but on the other, they are insanely expensive at £40-50 a piston
