Honestly, those seats look amazing. Excellent work!
I received new superformance tensioner bearings 2 weeks ago and they are made in Japan. I'll try to snap a picture tomorrow.
I found this picture, and was planning to use a dab where the o-ring meets the head. (not planning to cover with Hylomar as pictured). Thank you -...
That's good enough for me. Thank you!
I got the green gaskets from Superformance, but not sure if those are klinger sil material? Thanks for the opinions so far. I would prefer not to...
Good morning, I apologize if this has been covered in the past, but I couldn't find a leading opinion on whether to put a sealant on the valve...

Good morning, sorry for all the posts recently but the help is greatly appreciated! I'm now trying to decide whether or not to change the outer...
Thank you both, I should have noted this is an 85 308, euro spec. I agree it is the thermo time switch, thank you very much for the resources. I...
Good morning, I believe it is good advice to replace some of the engine sensors that are otherwise buried by the cooling and intake systems while...
Thank you all, I should have noted that these have the gears with metal guides (is an 85). I wanted to use phosphoric acid based treatment in...
