Default Re: CK18km? gtv6 capri,

My v6 is being built by KCs engine balancing at castle hill. He took the engine and stripped it down. He said it was in reasonable condition but needed a conventional reconditioning. So I ordered new piston rings, big end and main bearings, new valves from burton power website which cost $560 inc express shipping. Also ordered a full gasket kit from ebay for $85.

Jack has resleeved the valve stems and put harder valve seats for unleaded. And new welsh plugs throughout. Below are some pics of the head before and after. I don't know the final cost of labour but should find out tomorrow and I'll let you know so you can do some comparisons.
