I'd have thought the cam covers would be fine, especially with an extra beading of RTV around the seals they hopefully won't have sealing issues.
Cheers dude, I'm glad that you like what I'm doing compared to your level of ocd restoration haha
I'll update with pics of the roller bearing bushes later for those fans of mechanical engineering amongst you haha
Ooh, I also picked up a hybrid rear beam on the weekend, the beam will be going on my estate but the massive arb however..... It might accidently fall into the gti6 :p
I haven't really got that much done, but looking at getting the lacquer peel sorted soon which is good. At least yours has a working rev counter!
I want to do a full suspension change as well at some point but I've not really got the tools and haven't done it before so it'll be slow, and as the car is a daily I can't take it off the road for 2 weeks while I hit things with hammers and swear.
I bet the car handles really well now! Roller bearing pictures would be appreciated but then I am an engineer by trade...
Hopefully soon you'll have a really massive fall over and the throttle bodies will land in the engine bay!
This post is an artistic work of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted above as fact.
