im tempted to go a CMS stage 3 cam but i don't like the idea of needing valve springs and adjustable cam gear

well, picked up my new gaskets today, ordered the heavier springs for the head, pulled the sump off for modifications, and fitted new welsh plugs,

going to start cleaning the sump up this arvo, to get it spot less so it can be cut and welded 8-)

then I only need a new alternator and starter motor
