Sandy 189 Posted June 1, 2008 Some of the best information beyond the Haynes basic stuff is probably contained within the blogs etc on the forum! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swordfish210 20 Posted June 1, 2008 Nice Simpsons quote there Jonny There are plenty of people on here who have built these engines before. I found the haynes manual to be quite useful, also one of my lecturers at college who has been building race engines for about 20 years....and having Sandy's mobile number helped as well On a serious note though, just lable everything and every bolt. I know it sounds stupid but when you come back to putting it back togeather it can be very easy to get confused. Oh and take loads of picturers for reference Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaked 1 Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) I'm thinking of doing a similar sort of thing if I can get my rallye sold. Got an XS lined up if I can shift the rallye, and been on the phone to a local machining company that seem to really know there stuff when it comes to pugs. Something really appealing about these engines, not sure what it is.... If I manage to go ahead with it, it would definately be useful to know someone that's doing a similiar thing!! Hope to hear more about your progress!! Edited June 6, 2008 by jaked Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
