disasterous day
Had the ported and polished cylinder head pressure tested today....
****ing oil started pissing out through hairline cracks.... the head is effectively scrap metal.
most annoyed as it will delay me a good week or so.. unless i decide to utilise my cylinder head....hmmmm. Cheesed off.
at least it wasnt fitted to the car! lol... £200+ notes thrown away....well at least i get some valves lifters and cams.
WANTED: Williams Cylinder head or 1.8 16v one at a good cheap price is poss many thanks, gibbo

valve holes?
Is it in the bowl, chamber, seat, port?
did air bubble up from them?
-
Can you not take it back to the bloke you brought it off?
-
FFS! Surley you can take it back? Shouldnt they test it beforehand? If they did then it must be shoddy work?!??

Sorry to hear that fella...where did you get it from anyway?
