Mate as jonny says your machine shop will be able to sort the valves for nothing if your having multi angle valve seats cut.
Ive got a valve stick and grinding paste here that i never used if you wanted to get a refund on yours and you can have mine for nothing.

Cheers for the offer but it only cost me 4 quid delivered lol. Nah tbh I'm looking forward to learning how to do it. I know it's hard work and will be saying "wish I got someone else to do it" after the 2nd valve but will be good. If I get the head back tomorrow eve which I'm hoping to then Sunday I can get cracking with the rest of it.

Gasket set turned up the other day. The original pug HG is not MLS so need to buy a new one before I fit the head at the end of the month. I know the pig one will be good for the rest of the time I have the car but want to do it properly! Especially if it's happens to have. Turbo bolted on soon  Overdraft extension here I come!

Was going to buy a cheapy as I have loads of air tools in the loft but you know what they say. Buy cheap, buy twice! Will be saving for a decent compressor in the summer. Got a battery snap on buzz gun but it's only up to small jobs really

Annoyed. Someone hit my car this morning....
![[Image: 069d91b3.jpg]](http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll257/niallharper/069d91b3.jpg) Needs a split in the bumper repairing/new bumper and a new wing and hockey stick. Insurance is all sorted so it's hopefully going to be done before the end of the month. Oh and I might of jumped on the recent bandwagon and modified my fogs..... ![[Image: ebb06fd3.jpg]](http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll257/niallharper/ebb06fd3.jpg) ![[Image: 15a99d39.jpg]](http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll257/niallharper/15a99d39.jpg)

Honestly get pressed plates! They change the front end for the better!
If you are struggling for a bumper then you can have mine next month as I am getting a new smoothed one! ![[Image: Foxy2.jpg]](http://i1224.photobucket.com/albums/ee369/Foxy-jim/Foxy2.jpg)
