...engine has been completely stripped, cleaned and checked as necessary, including dismantling of the GT3 oil pump etc, fortunately all good....
...Nick has taken the opportunity to upgrade to superior ACL race bearings which weren't originally available...
....distributor drive gear and bearing both being replaced with 3.2 items....
...old bearing looking the worse for wear!
....
....engine now built back up with cam timing done and just final assembly to go...
....Gary Cook is in the process of draining all oil, oil tank out and cleaned etc. Oil will be drained from all oil lines and front cooler to be flushed although it's unlikely thermostat opened so should be safe but again zero chances will be taken.
Engine should be complete in the next day or so and hopefully back in the car and running next week
Cheers,
The stress along the way will make the end-result all the more rewarding.
