What you will find here: Intended to display minor modifications to my Westfield SEi, this blog now witnesses the two year rebuild (and more) after a major crash in October 2011. Have fun and feel free to add a comment at the end of any post.

Been completely headless

The good thing loosing your head is when you get it back as new. New valve guides, valve seats cut three angles, facing took 0.12mm off, readily assembled. Of course ... new gasket!
A good idea is to check the TDC (top dead center) mark on the crank pulley. Use the book and respect the torque and order in which you tighten the head bolts.
Next are the tappets and the rocker shaft. Tighten evenly.
Enough for a summer Sunday morning...
Cheers.
