Over bored to 82.1 and new pistons and rods.  :innocent:

 

Stock bore size is 82.5. To overbore would mean going to 83mm.


You're never in already  :surprised:   :innocent:

Some more stuff happened...







Bores honed and new rings. Head skimmed and ready for new Uprated gasket.  Seized manifold studs drilled out.



Now the planned work can go ahead!

Engine will be like new.

In other news I listed the Turinis for sale on the 5x112 wheels for sale page on Facebook.

Good to see this coming along Mike, you sure you don't wanna buy my TD 1,2's?  :evilgrin: I doubt ET40's would rub I had 8j ET37's (ET48 with 11mm spacers) and 225 Michelin PSS on track whilst pretty low and never touched one. My arches are rolled though.

It's a risk. I've got 235 Michelin Cup 2's they really fill the arches. I get away with et45 TDs

Plan is to sell the Turinis to free up some cash and get some nice strong light wheels later next year.
