anyway, nope never had the head off, the only thing i took off was the LSD gearbox lol
Cool, i'll have it off then and do the gasket and mod whilst i'm at it. Yeah cts was fooked and it'd been overfuelling badly, thus fooking the cat.Quote:

+1 for what browney has said.
otherwise:
www.orsas.com, 7.8mmx 87mm long alloy tube fitted in the oil way between number 2/3 exhaust ports
i dont see how that solves the cracked oil way browney or do they block the oil way?? in which case why dont they just use the hollow tube
they block the centre oilway and go external.
its probably easier to do it externally than just the hollow tube.
Plus you can prove its been done this way!Quote:

Thanks again Dave, Joff's thread is deffo very useful. I think i just about understand it! Thanks all for the help!
DJ browney, pm sent.
im not arguing at all but the hollow tube method is far easier surely.Quote:
