May well have some time free, but don't hold me to it yet. Need to check the agenda, what time you thinking of?? Do you just want to swap it?

is anyone free this weekend near us???
if Pal318is is busy we can't change our cylinder head over. we can feed and water our 'man (or woman) in shining amour!!
a link to a step by step guide would be helpful too.

we have a 316i thats done 170,000 miles. the tappets are fooked so ian decided to change the cylinder head and get a new cam - which will get fitted once bob s sends it. we started the transaction before we read the whole mess with spadge. we think we might wait til the cam gets here to fit the cylinder head now. do it all together!
