Engine is now back in, re-wrapped the exhaust manifold and trial fitted it, with so much material removed from the block and the head - close to 1/4" - I had to create some clearance around the turret. This has always been close so out came the grinder - I could have raised the engine but its pretty tight at the top end between injectors and the bonnet.
Also had to put a bit of a flat on No. 1 primary so that it didn't foul the mounting boss on the block.
Spindles and butterfly's fitted, need to get hold of a couple of cap head bolts for the awkward manifold fixings
Should hopefully be running this week if I get some time down the garage.........
