thanks antt

Sorry to hear you had a bad run Sam.


2 head gaskets in a week has gotta be some sort of record.

just watched the vidio, those noises really make ya cringe. kind of like watching someone get kicked in the balls.

ya might wanna try the copper head gasket trick sam it worked for my mates blown monaro steering finally arrived to thanks

Ouch, thats a big list of things to fix.

Better change the name of the thread back as it isnt quite so finished anymore.

Better luck next time.

so what caused all these problems, are they easily overcome or will there need to be a bit of a rethink on how things are setup or was it just bad luck?

Was the block decked sam?

You shouldn't need the copper head gasket if the internals are stock, but then again you will need it when you put the blower back on.

i met antt too, he crashed our fire and started dissing nsw ppl... then he realised he was the only canetoad left, so he quietened down a bit


i came and talked to ya sam, and wasn't just cos i wanted to collect good to put some faces to the names over the weekend

The transfer ands gearbox Ithink were just bad luck but the engine was running hot from the start so there is a problem there.
