block bores look and feel fine.
Head looks fuckered in my opinion, but some have said its fixable.
I have a spare head anyway. KS with external oilway fixings (where its gone i dunno )

dont tempt us lol. we both decided not to rush it to finish it as it looks brilliant in the flesh and would be a shame to ruin it with pop rivets etc to hold them in

Not that quick - should be done hard overnight. It's what I used to stick my arches on with and it took about an hour or so. But you can get quicker stuff though.
