Rich, looking at those bolts I recognise a fair few of them too LOL

Started on my engine and noticed there was a leak around the crank seal but looking at it after reading this I'm pretty sure its the end cap thats the cause. Been looking round for that autojoint but can't find it Dunno
only seen Hylamar

Those pulleys are almost done - will send you some details - I've not forgotten!!

Here the head is on and the studs are all torqued up. The head is fitted without the lifters, cams, bearing caps etc as it

Real high quality finish on the block there rich, machinist must be a geniusWhistle Big grin

Nice to see these engine parts coming together. Its something i rarely get to see especially the more exotic stuff. Makes me appreciate these cast iron lumps i stare at all dayLOL

What sealant is that you've used on the cam carriers/covers? Looks far neater than the black muck i used.

There is a seal, but it's bonded to the cam covers and can't be replaced.

If it's leaking you could a bead of Autojoint in addition to the bonded seals, that should cure it.

Peugeot have changed their Autojoint from a gold colour to a silver one now. I was told that Peugeot's varient is silver where Citroen uses black Crazy

Quick question on the inlet valves - what was stamped at the top of the valve? Mine have TRW-J and when I've removed them there is only about 1mm of seating so something is not right. Just wondering whether I have the wrong valves or the seats have been replaced with the wrong part

Is this autojoint a silicone based sealant then? Do they use it for a seal on all engine parts?
