Replaced it today was up at 9 finish by 4.40 was quite pleased with the timing and the weather on that one.
If you didnt read i ended up finding mayo in the expansion bottle and a lot of it to! but though id replace the head gasket in hope that the problem will now be fixed if not anyone want to buy my sodding nova lol

But did you do the oil gallery mod for the cracked head buisness? as you may find it mixing oil and water again as they crack when they have been off and retorqued because your tightening as per the coscast head vauxhall revised the torque settings for the ks head later on.
