Many thanks.

Re: B200 engine assembly

I alomost forgot something : - before I drop the head over the block, no1 piston (first form timing) should be up at TDC, and both valves from the first combustion chamber (first from the timing) should be closed?

Re: Black Plastic Things That Sit On The Valves

Mac, thank you for your support. I`ve emailed some of other companies, I got no replies so I bought eight valve stem seals and I cut them to dimension. Before that I`ve changed two shims from the tappets, in order to have the same clearance. :360:
