altezzaclub Posted January 2, 2010 Report Posted January 2, 2010 Now we have the motor out of the KE70 its time to get the cam cut, extractors on, SUs fitted and bearings checked! What I would like to do is re-make the whole exhaust in 2" and 1&3/4", so would like to borrow a pipe bender for a couple of weeks. On that note, I've just paid $25 for a 1/8" BSPT tap for threading holes to suit brake booster fittings going into inlet manifolds. Its the sort of thing you'll only ever use once, so if anyone wants to borrow it sometime let me know. Its a lot easier to mail than a pipe bender!! Quote
tojo2 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Yep, got one of those. Come around and bend your pipes any time you like :lolcry: Hope you find something closer though ;) Quote
altezzaclub Posted January 3, 2010 Author Report Posted January 3, 2010 Lol! Thankyou for that kind offer!! I hope I find something closer than Norway too!! Cheers PS- have motor on floor in bits! Bearings slightly worn so will replace if cheap enough, all due to previous owner using oil filter w/o non-return valve so it started up every morning with no oil pressure for 30seconds! Cam out and due to go to Wade Cams next week. Back of the valves and inlets look very dirty and I'm wondering about taking the head off to polish it all up! It is always a bigger job than you think it will be! ;) Quote
