I have the sealey timing kit for the v6 when you're ready to put it back together, and you're only up the road from me.

Only need a supply of tea and choc chip cookies :dance:

The only thing that should touch the head face is a skim tool or the head gasket. If the head must be placed face down then put it on a very soft surface, maybe your head would suffice....


And by your last remark you mean what :(

I was just going by what I could see in the picture. You have explained that you weren't working on the slab and I have removed the comment.

I just don't like to see 'unsafe' working practises, or things that could cause possible further damage.

I apologise.
