Now! I am a mechanic by trade and I certainly wouldn't have bought one if I essentially as I know how many faults and problems these get! All problems with the car have been sorted a box build at just shy of 90k drc removed ect but BAM head gaskets gone! Just wondering if there's anything inpaticular that mah make my life easy?
Plan is...
-engine and box out with subframe
Whilst engine and box is out:
-cambelt,water pump thermo ect
-oil pump chain and tensioner for 60 quid I think it's well worth it
-rear main (leaking)
-front main (has weeped in past)
-de cat down pipes ;)
-heads skimmed valves reseated valve seals ect pressure tested
Anything else?

I suspect 2 whole days for completion plus time for heads to be done!
