Nice! Post a video of that cam once it's in :D

Will definitely do mate :)


Everyone else, I felt more comfortable getting someone else I know to do it, as all he really works on is L67's. I work for myself and by myself, so I really don't even have the time to do it myself, I need to keep the money coming in and working on my own car costs me money. At least now it will all be done and I just have to spend one weekend putting it all back together, and then all that needs to be done is a tune, and I can start enjoying driving it again.
I actually was going to do it myself, but the engine sat on the engine stand for months and I wasn't getting anything done, at least now it's making progress.

That's fair enough. You have chosen the shortest route to getting the project completed and starting the many km's of fun to come.

UPDATE: Was about to get a bit of work done to my VS today. Ended up getting the flywheel machined. Then Bolting it on to the engine with the clutch kit. Then decided to sit the engine in, and then finally decided to bolt the gearbox in and starter motor. A lot of progress for half a days work.
