I joke, I stripped it and it was ok anyway but piece of mind I put new bearings in had the crank polished, light hone on the block and new rings, head gasket obviously, head a very light skim valves reseated and new stem seals fitted and cam seals etc basically just a freshen up, was s good strong motor anyway still is now doesn't miss a beat or smoke pulls like a train, the best let iv had by far if you get s good one there great if you don't there s nightmare

It may of been pub talk it's just what the lad told me, the main reason I stripped it to inspect when I got it was that it was "400bhp" and now the cars being broke I wanted to check what I had bought was ok, which it was but while it was in bits I just refreshed it anyway

What's going on it then? The cav turbo's would be mint and you need something to make it bit more yours rather than Toms

Also not doing much to the cav at all, keeping those wheels, few tidy up jobs once speakers and ice all sorted but that will be that.... Its for driving not modding
