KiNK43 Posted June 11, 2022 Author Share Posted June 11, 2022 Lots of pic taking going on. Actually making an effort to drive it this summer. Definitely a car I look back at. Still loving the mb shape. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_broon Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Top cleaning job matey! I know what you mean, always end up having at least a glance over the shoulder waking away in a car park, and there's just something about the way the lights in a multi storey make them look. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 yes, I never get tired of the MB/MC shape. To me it's a classic 90's design, simple and classy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_broon Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Very nice matey. Bet you were excited when the postie arrived Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted July 1, 2022 Author Share Posted July 1, 2022 Yarp excited to get it in. But long way to go really. Wait for bearings etc to turn up. Mean time can start gapping the piston rings. Literally takes a lifetime to do. Then onto sorting the head out. Need to measure p2v clearance too once together. I suspect will need to use a thicker head gasket now as block has been decked twice. Compression will be higher than before pistons are 9.8:1 as opposed to 9.2:1 and using flat faced valves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
