Thanked 1,921 Times in 1,186 Postsback by popular demard here is a update on the rebuild.
The head was stripped down for the ports polished and to have valves cleaned and lapped in.
It was then off to the dishwasher for a long hot wash ready for assembly today.
New valve stem seals where fitted, I had to modify a valve spring compressor to get the valve springs out as they sit so far in the head.
Timed up the N/A cams to inlet 2 degrees advance and exhaust 2 dgrees retard, turned the engine over gingerly through 2 revolution of the crank and all was ok
Just need to get some seals for the turbo and a water pump then it`s finished
