Thanking you!

It got me to the car show over 6 hours round trip. My alternator fell off en route and on the way home my clutch pedal got stuck up but managed just to hold it in 5th for an hour lol and it got me back to my drive!

The whole weekend was just amazing.

Pics!

Well progress so far is that I've taken the head off and the gearbox off again.

I've replaced 4 exhaust valves and 2 inlet valves.

Getting a head gasket tomorrow to refit the head.

So she did VERY well getting to Kettering and back on pretty much two cylinders! HAHA Honda FTW.

And this is why my clutch wouldn't let me push the pedal down. Brand new Exedy clutch BTW.

[244Brick]

What the HELL!

[mrg7243]

Damn this is fucking awesome.

And sorry to hear that baout exedy they are normally really good clutches.

Why are you replacing the valves did you drop them?

[Benny]

Thanks man, Yea it ran well and pedal was nice and light before it exploded haha

Turned out in the end I had no compression on cylinder 3 and how it had compression on cylinder 2 I don't know.

Jumped 6 teeth so It was going to bend a valve or 6 lol

It's getting there though! I've learnt a SHITLOAD in the past few months though about engine building and setting up ect so in that sense it's been great but I've not gone for a proper cruise about since early May! I'm dying to go for a poodle!

[mrg7243]

Bump? I want a video of that exhaust.
