3 boys no less... And yeah, it can get VERY hectic... I think Trina (the Missus) has her work cut out for her more than me though... God bless her... :)

Once the youngest (Declan) hits high school, I'm off to the pub with the 3 of em for some serious, drunken shit stirring... Anybody that want's to mess with me has to take on me, and the 3 boys... :( We shall be called the "strutto gang" and we will be a force to be reckoned with... or something...

I've got the middle one (Khalad) helping with oil changes already... Pass the spanner, grab the rag, open the oil bottle, let the jack down, etc, etc... He should be able to do it by himself in a few more years... :headspin:

And the eldest one (Brody)? He's going straight to the NRL... His team has won every game bar one this season... QUEENSLANDER!

And now for some pics :D

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
