You don't seem to be having much luck !

Either that or you just want to be sure

i know nick i made a mistake and i have no problem admitting it, the head bolts have to be oiled up before instalation before you torque up, a useful bit of info in case anyone has the pleasure of an engine rebuild. But at least i will have 2 running engines one with turbo one without, so i worked out i might be able to install both and get some decent power :lol: TT
