I was going to make a thread just like this lol.

They are great. Look forward to reading them, they just seem so informative and are a good read. Very interesting and no BS. Loved seeing Meddy Clios one as I can relate to the car more than a Valver.

Some videos of the finished articles would be great Laughing

Yeah I sent you one asking how much a head would cost and if you had any ideas on deliver costs. Also any other costs that will result from swapping the heads (i.e. do I need to replace my cambelt and gasket(s) etc).

why not just take yuor head off and send it him?

then when head is off

change everything..

saves doing it another time.

Because I need my car daily and what's the point of sending a head off when there are plenty available near him?.

the point so you can do other stuff to your car whilst its off road,

but if your gonna be swapping the head over when it comes back, suppose you can do it then instead!
