well well well some progress has been made.....
engine rebuild has been getting done by my mate, rings, shells, oil pump, water pump, timing belt kit couple bits.
had to modify the rod caps to fit the ARP bolts
u can see by the pic that ive had to ever so slightly chamfer the hole where the rod bolt goes through, (done one side not other )
