Re: M20 Engine Rebuild Garage

Personally if I were rebuilding it, I'd ask the customer to finish it off, fit shells, core plugs, 324td oil pump, oil spray bar. Inspect the rocker arms for "flatting" Also advise if it's an eta crank to get it balanced. But that's just what i'd do... why the 324td oil pump and spray bar?? willy
