M42 rebuild complete - some pics
« on: October 06, 2007, 04:31:48 PM »
Haven't been on here for a while - last time was about 6 months ago during the rebuild. Thanks those who were able to offer some excellent advice on injectors.

The car's back on the road now, having suffered a profile gasket failure 2 years ago. I know that's a long time, but I've had a few things on!!

It's great to have my everyday car back again, had forgotten quite how good it is...

I've posted some pics of the engine rebuild HERE
