ahhhh feels nice to be back on the forum. since its been down ive been a rather busy bunnie collecting parts and painting like crazy!!!!!







also took my old engine apart with intensions to just change the stem seals.............until i noticed the waterjacket on the gasket was soon about to go so i then decided to rebuild the whole thing. having great fun tearing it apart with paul.

rallye wise i replaced the beam with my beam tube that has ok bearings and took the 21tbs out because one of the end bolts had snapped!!!!!the car is now sat on its ass till i sort this :LOL took her out for a spin........noise coming from the front end.......ahhhh topmounts......ah missing washer for top mounts,ah well got mine at home. then noticed its unsettled when putting you foot down.......hmmm play in rack ahh also ball joint not the best so wack them on order. radiator pressurising???????? rebleed sorted it for the mean time but green coolant???????
then fitted my nice fresh carpet in the rear and fitted my new boot badge and didnt touch her for a week.

feeling good ........................................................until yesterday went for a 50mile drive with my mate paul (because he is bedding in fresh engine rebuild) bugs everywhere so had to spray the window clean........wind window up as you do and put cold air fan on.........nice fuel smell!!!!!!
cams run lean so dont worry. then found and lovely road at least 7miles long which is just awesome so i fought "lets see what you can do" f*ck ME was great the rallye just pulled then went all boggy and odd..............pull over pop the tank.......................................................................................................

f*ckING HEADGASKET
so have now knocked the rebuild on the head because i have to take the hire car back soon and will need the car for work just hoping once the head is done the bottom end wont go.
cheers miles for attacking the head so quickly and thanks paul for all the help an for dropping it off for me :

Nice looking Rallye, great project too

Is it a dirty finger trying to touch up an engine with a crack in the power steering pump ?

Shouldn'nt worry much about that crack Marcellus, its held in compression by the two plates of the relocation bracket. Just keep an eye on it to see if it gets worse.

Bye bye Sundance Kid

yeah the six engine was good but had a bit of puff whenever you booted it.....stem seals so we got carried away and ripped it apart to rebuild then put back in and then sell the rallye engine to make some funds back but thats not happening now. on the bright side of things lightened flywheel is on the way with new seals oil pinch bolts number plates and loads of more stuff.

she'll be a beauty when we are done with her quick to. good thing also is...................havent fully paid for the car yet i think that enough for now
