As most of you know from the RR day and other meets my engine is a rather smokey redtop!! lol it cains oil and i must put in at least two litres a week!! ive got some money sorted to get a rebuild and a few other accessories and was just wondering what you lot think would be good when i get this done?? Seeing as some of you guys on here have a clue unlike me!! heres my list to see what you guys think?!
1. full rebuild
2. Piper fast road cams
3. Piper vernier pulleys
4. Ultrasonically clean of all injectors
5. New Valeo clutch kit
6. Ported and polished head
7. Lightened flywheel
Anybody think this is the right choice?? any suggestions would be great!!

1. yes, 100% yes!
4. yes
7. yes, well worth it, only about £40 to get lightened and balanced
and might as well fit a new clutch too
cams and pulleys can be done afterwards, but since you will be fitting a new cambelt might as well do at same time
