Lurch's engine rebuild

Post by heinkeljb »

Following on from Lurch disgracing himself by managing to snap the engine crank shaft in two. The engine is on it's way to being re-built.

Engineering firm has removed the two snapped exhaust manifold studs and reground the valve seats. Oh yes and they cleaned the heads -

Don't think they will stay looking that way once the engine is back in use.
