Now thats a well earned beer.

I was never worried (cos I was talking to Mrs DTM and knew it was running  ;D)

Sit down and enjoy a few, you deserve them!

Thanks very much, looking forward to driving her again  :D :D :D

A very good plan  :y

She feel like she is running ok again after the mishap?  did you have time to port the heads again?  or are they stock?

Running very quietly and your heat shields dont rattle any more!

Heads were again slightly ported.

Well, it was finished 3 hours earlier than my worst case revised schedule (following delay of the gasket delivery).  It all went back together very nicely, about 3 hours!

So last night only took an hour.

It was as quick as last time, the adder last time was the need to strip the old heads and bolt the ancillaies onto the re-furbed placement items.
