well that was fun, just spent the last hour & half stripping down a b25 head i got cheap.

got told it was a bog stock head that needed a strip down as it was "worn out",

well stripped it down to a bare casting only to find that it had been rebuilt before,

it's had new valve stem seals, new valves, new rocker shafts, HD rockers, HD double valve springs, 3 angle valve seats, camshaft seals, & the icing on the cake???

a Schrick 284/272 camshaft :D & a decent looking port, polish & gasflow job.

safe to say i'm happy with my £150 purchase, just need to fit a new cam pulley & it's all good to go.
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.
