I used an angle guage to do the final couple of torques and a T bar. No torque wrench
i should say even though i used a torque wrench i did the bolts up at angle as per rave manual.
marked/dotted the head of the bolt with a liquid paper pen and also the head itself, turn bolt until alligned
No, it says to me that you wanted a part for a car that there's about 1 million samples of in the US but hardly any running around Oz.Quote:

The US driveshaft mob had one sitting on the shelf, (size of market) the Oz mob had to fabricate one from scratch. ;)

yesterday i took it for a longer run and all was good, head temp sat at 79-83C with and without aircon (just got that working while it was off the road) and by the time i got hime again it seems to be idlling better and around where it used to be.
it seems to me like the seals from the head to the injector pump (rebuilt) needed to bed in.
now it is off to the panel shop to have a dent my neighbour put in it fixed, :eek: :(and yes he is paying for it (well his insurance)
Sweet :) Well done
