I started reassembling the bottom end on Sunday, only got as far as parts would allow me.
Crank is in, pistons too, then I slipped the cam in, waiting on a new
oil pump and was waiting for cam retainer before I could slip the timing chain and cover on.
Then yesterday some more presents arrived.
They are NOS cam retainer plate and valve springs, all are only stock but supplied by a good mate.
My mate (Rob) rang me out of the blue and asked if I was replacing the springs, he said "after all, some of them have been held compressed for a long time"
He has many new parts that he has collected over the years and posted these out to me.
