All done but I may have a stripped thread on the head where the exhaust manifold bolts on so it may be heads off, I have nothing else to do so I’m not to bothered.

That does look good Derek. Let's hope it stay that way... when you eventually start using it again


I was gonna ask, is that a 26" rad? If so, was it originally 26 or have you changed it from 22? And did you change the core support?

Thanks Rob and all your nice comments. I've even polished the underside of the hood, think I maye heve been lucky and not stripped the thread after all, I've re tightened them and run the car up to tempreture and no leaks as yet, fingers crossed.

Rob, it came with a 26inch rad from new, I was lucky when I got this one it has a lot of nice options, TonyO de-coded it for me in 1999.

yes i thought the underside of the hood looked nice too, makes all the difference
Good news re the thread, that would have put a downer on all that hard work, even if you were secretly looking forward to taking the head off
And yes you lucked out with the 26" rad. Bast*rd

Brilliant job Derek, looks absolutely fantastic!!

Cheers Steve

Looks great Derek,something very satisfying about a tip top engine bay
