If you get that sat in the bay looking as nice as you've got your 1l looking it'll be mega. Something awesome about a good clean 8v in a clean bay, might be worth checking out some of the VAG boys and belgian 8v stuff for some inspiration as they know how to do awesome 8v bays

I can't remember how much mine cost to be honest as I got it ground down and had new bearings and work done on the block whilst I had it all apart. But for all that work I paid £300 which included rings and bearings etc.

Over the time you're taking I'm sure you could save to have it all done and at least you'll know it's at it's best.

on them 8v engines you can have the cam casing skimmed and it gives the effect of having a high lift cam
