100% sure. Had a mechanic drive it today after adjusting the tappets. He said it could be OK for years or it could just give up. He was going to find out the cost of parts and get back to me.

Thanx for the info guys gives me a ballpark figure to work with.

I'll think about that box for $750......it's done more kms than mine though. An option nonetheless, will keep you in mind.
