Phil was that you that txt me saying its alive , Sorry as i did'nt save your ph# and just thought it was a wrong number txt If it was all good
glad to hear
Frank how did you go with the camper was it the place in Dandenong next to Frankston dandy rd

You beat me to it, I was going to drop you a line about this, seems you bought the complete head, was it supplied with valve lash caps.
The Camper trailer mob was one down from the corner in the Tyre place, I bought the demo model they had, the one in the pics, not bad for a Chinese build.
Three brand new tyres and rims, slide out kitchen with 4 burner cooktop, sink with flikmaster tap, 80L water tank, water pump, electric brakes, battery and charger, LED lights, stone guard, Treg Hitch, inner spring queen size mattress (free to a good home), enormous front storage box, hard floor camper. Welds and construction are good, all the bolts and nuts are SS with locknuts and for the price of $5200 rego'd on the road was too good to pass up, thanks again for looking, drop in and have a look if you're after a good buy, Regards Frank.

Good to hear about the camper mate and no i bought a new Pinnacle 3 years ago so im right there thanks.
The head did not come with new lash caps i used my old ones for a week and replaced with new ones anyway , I did get new head bolts and gaskets with the head all up it was about $900.00 delivered from memory and about 5 days door to door from Turners very easy to deal with

good to see you chime in Rangieman.
Yes mate, it was a text from me. Got the motor in and finished plumbing it all up saturday.
Flushed the coolant, new power steering fluid and an oil/filter change, running like a swiss watch.
