well if no-one knows, its back off the road again, well actually it was back off the road since last saturday afternoon, i broke another inner CV joint on the short side, so time to upgrade my short side to 2.0 spec. i have ordered a hub just waiting on it to arive, and iv got a motorsport shaft and a 2.0 inner cv joint, just need an outer cv joint then can get on and build it all up.

well iv ordered a new outer CV joint now and conversion hub just waiting on that to arrive, the joint will be here tomorrow on next day delivery, and not sure about the hub... if it doesnt arrive soon i might buy another one on next day delivery before the weekend.

but here is what iv got so far that iv collected over the past year, a conversion motorsport shaft, and a 2.0 16v inner cv joint that i did buy first of all but it was the wrong one for what i was running / breaking but looks like its come in handy now after all, good job i never sent it back.

just went and got my head that i took from the re-builders to see if they could mend it and how much, but i got a second hand head of my mate for £35 instead, so i went and collected this head back from the re-builders and here is one valve, they're pretty much all the same lol also you can see the condition on the head in the same photo, and now just imagine that indentation on top of the piston itself lol not good :/
