hi Nelly,
todays progress report

ive cleaned up all the gasket faces and the gasket itself .
iv noticed that there is no recess machined into the engine cases for an O ring , and on the mating face of the barrel there is no further oil way drilled upto the head , so i can only assume that the gasket sealant actually covers the drilling to seal the oilway ( the oil return from the cylinder head is down the rear of the head either side of the exhaust manifold and then into the crankcase)
got some Loctite 5920 rtv sealant today , should do the trick ?


thanks for all the help Nelly, i thought it would be more fun to do this on the forum , maybe it will give others a little insite into what goes on inside the motor and we can all learn a little.....lol

normaly i fix Landrovers and Hgvs so this is something new and interesting for me
