URGENT oil pressure stop engine

I've got a few heads. I could build one up ready for you to just bolt it down to the block?

Photo showing the two bolts. You can see one is stripped



Video showing pins and theyre play withiut bolts. Thinking I can ask the welder to make sure they are welded as far apart from each other as possible

[doylebros]

If the pins can freely move/rotate, there's a chance of the pins being welded in the wrong position - mark the pins to the plate so the welder doesn't get it wrong.

Pleased to see you've got the opportunity of a complete head so things are looking up.

[Pesky jones]

Ok mark them so he gets the right rotation? In terms of them being welded so they are vetically correct, will asking him to weld them as far apart as they can go suffice?

[Pesky jones]

As I said in the pm to alex, does it not depend on the amount of valves bent, as I might be able to have the currebt head repaired? Or perhaps I should just go ahead and buy a new head of alex now?

Perfect example of why you need to use the genuine tool to lock the cams.

Where do you get thre genuine tool from?

[rich83]

Borrowing it from someone

Pesky depends on the price of the complete head it maybe a good idea to get that for what it's worth as you'll still need the old head worked on skimmed pressure tested etc.

Dealer will sell you the tool - TPS depending which branch they to can supply the tool.

[doylebros]

I'm sure Alex's head offer will be a good deal and most likely you will need it but if I was you I would stick to your original plan and continue your testes to confirm what damage you have in case the answer is an engine.

[Pesky jones]

I thought the dealer wont sell tools. Ill see how th welding goes and then if that fails then ill try dealer or tps

What would indicate a new.engine? Taking the head.off and looking at the pistons? When turning the crankshaft the exhaust cam turns nicely and it is all smooth and quiet.

Just relax and let's just get the chain fitted and do your testes before you think further into it than needs be.
