Yeah to be fair they're pretty cheap and for what they are good enough!!!

right suppose i better update this ha ha, find it hard to update it off my iphone/ipad so can only do when im on a computer
my rocker cover gasket was leaking so decided i would cut the rocler cover baffle plate down and refit with another gasket
fitted some rs turbo plugs to
fitted bonnet raiser as a temp fix as my bay is getting a little warm
starting having oil pressure problems and engine dont sound to clever but it hasn't been running long with pressure light on and only idle not driven so hopefully haven't done any damage.
so suspect the pump as failed so purchased
brand new gm z20let pump
modified pick up to suit pump
gaskets etc to suit
8v baffle plate sump gasket
gm longlife filter
gm 10w40 oil
cambelt kit
water pump
fitting at some point next week so will update then
should be a good little car when you have sorted the niggles out
Is great fun, driven a few fast cars and nothing puts a smile on face like this does, is funny pushing rs4s, Astra vxrs and m3s up the road ha haOriginally Posted by novasrikev
If the pressures dropped and you heard it (as in you heard a knock) you will have damaged the big ends... At least! Also your turbo wouldn't have been to happy, so that's probably has an upcoming expiry date too
Only heard tappets taping bit more, and was only on idle so switched off straight awayIf the pressures dropped and you heard it (as in you heard a knock) you will have damaged the big ends... At least! Also your turbo wouldn't have been to happy, so that's probably has an upcoming expiry date too
Im with will on this.I suspect more damage will be done.for peace of mind id be dropping the sump and checking the big ends clearances and condition.
That's the plan as sumps Gotta come off to fit pump so end are coming off to check, and if there fine I'll fit new pump etc
