Jealous of:

a. your car spec - limited with LSD and PAS

b. F100-M kit, I bought the F111 before the "M" came out

c. your car colour - it's lush

that is all.

Don't be jealous over the F100-M Paolo, the hp gain is very low

Got some painting done:

Rebuilt my alternator (only needed bearings, brushes were good):

Blue paint is translucent blue over metallic silver, unfortunately doesn't show up with the iphone camera in that light.

Sorry steal your pic, but in need of help.
The part circled holds the Oil adapter Plate, which holds the Cooler and Filter.
On removal of the Cooler from my AltoF6A, which attaches directly to the Block,
I discover that the 3 Holes to attach the Adapter Plate ARE NOT THERE..........

How hard will it be to Drill and Tap these...??? any ideas welcome

Thanks

The lobes on the camshaft push the valves down (open) and the springs, which sit over the valve stem, push the valve back up (closed) once the lobe has passed.

Small update, nothing exciting. Put new foam backing on the rear cam cover and fitted it. (Cleaned the shed too

Had to use domed Allen bolts as regular look like they might foul the timing belt:
