It should do the job nicely at bringing down the compression for when i get a roller bearing t3 later in the year. Im fully cleaning and shot blasting it all while its off the car and trying to tidy the engine bay wiring up again to make it worth while. Then its back onto the bodywork again. This has set me back a week so its going to be a bit tight now.

Bad news mate - Still, it sounds like you've got it in hand - good luck getting her ready - Mine's still going to be undriveable other than getting to JAE and back gently, due to the clutch problems (Booked in with Si a week after JAE... )
