The sheds looking busy again.
New 1641cc engine in but low compression on the left bank and oil pouring out of oil pump due to a pulled stud, so new helicoil plus quality oil gaskets and oil nuts from heritage works a treat.
Left head off for a potential swap but on closer inspection its clear the valve seats have worn as you can see from the photo. Re lapped the valves using grinding compound plus the air drill. Back to 120 psi on the left bank. Nice one Gary, head salvaged and engine just needing fine tuning and a new weber choke.
and of course a restored and road worthy beetle!!!
