Reconditioning Head....

[matt_vaughan]

Just in process of ripping apart a 1300 cylinder head, to gas flow and port it before putting it on the engine I'm building ;)

Anyone know the best place to get stem seals or even a full reconditioning kit? (Not tried factors yet, as only started tonight)

Cheers

go to a decent motor factors & ask for an elring gasket set, they were original equipment back in the day.. or a payen set is fairly good. but get a price from the dealer, it may surprise you.

Don't get a price from the Dealer, 35 quid trade, Elring are good as said above, FAI are ok , as long as your'e not going too high on the compression.

Sounds about the wright price.

ACE reconditioners in Bradford. They are very good and cheap. Had my turbo one fully rebuilt there with new everything, also a corsa 8v recently. They are on springmill street off manchester road near drakes reconditioners.

Well I'm going to need gaskets so a headset will do the trick.
