For some reason I have been dreading the engine. I think mainly because I was dreading making a costly mistake.

Anyway... now I have made a start, I am really enjoying doing the rebuild.

Had an original engine stand (which is very well made) and it has been put into good use.

Valves done, clearances done (about 8 removals of each lifter to get them right). Solid lifters used. Egge is the brand of the stuff I was sent. Did not want to drill holes in the block cause I was worried I might clutz that up.

One piece guides and colletts. Original keepers for the guides used. Those mysterious O-Rings that came in the kit were put in - on a second go of course.
