pull it apart yourself taking plenty of photos along the way so its not too difficult to put back together. take the head to an engine place (i have used richardsons engine service, but ask around there are plenty of good places). get them to check it over and face it.... if its not warped/cracked slap it back on and do a skid. if it is munted depending on wether you are going to do the labor yourself suss out quotes on a 2nd hand motor vs new head

btw its a good chance to replace hoses when the head is off

might get a start on it tommorow man cheers.

Might see if i can find a guide on it or something

I am going to need a favour while i am away (if someone can help me out) - Im off to Whyalla on the 6th May (thursday) and returning on the 20th May (also a thursday)

Sometime in that time im expecting a package to be delivered with my external wastegate in it. I need the whole package taken by Garage 7 so Decs can grab the bits he needs from it, then the package returned home.

As for when it'll be showing up, its sometime within the next 6-10 days. I can get someone to contact you when it arrives

Anyone able to help? There will be alcohol payment when i return......

not bad with price hey, awesome quality to be brutally honest.

and if I buy the farm in Renmark I'll get a car hoist and spend some quality time making this track car

once we sell in say 15yrs time I could afford a R35 GT-R and sell the stagea & r32 rb26dett funcar

seriously considering it.......

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday.
