Disturbing the stories of the crap on the inlet valves. I hope the catch can helps.

The carbon on the valves was solid. A blade, scotch brite, brake cleaner and a pillar drill got it all off in the end. The deposits on the head were a sticky carbon gunge which scraped off ok then a clean with scotch brite on a wheel. Most of the build up was on the back of the port where the only way to get to it was by removing the valves. I will take the inlet off in 5k to see how much sh*t appears back on the valves. Im running the forge tank.
My next thing is to chuck the battery in the boot. Ive got a red top 30 or 40 that should fit in the side cubby hole nicely. Been inspired by all these little batteries appearing on certain cars on here!!

Not had any pm's from ya. I need to get some prices for the coating, but it will deffo be more than the wrap. I would have thought around the ton mark.

In the shot of the Bung you have welded, in the background is your sump machined out for the stock Oil Level/Temp Sensor too?
