Hi Bob, Good idea, I've observed the pushrods spinning before but I'll take another look this weekend to check they're all doing it. I know what you mean about the 1.5-2mm being about 20-25% of total

Hi Peter, Haven't heard from you for a while. I guess my thinking behind just replacing the chain is that I'll avoid having to purchase another inlet manifold gasket (about $200NZ). If I just replace

Those are my thoughts exactly..only in US Dollars...;-) How ever , I have 150,000 miles on my 1988 NAS Range Rover and figure the bottom should be good for another 100,000 , so if I spend a grand now

As with my situation, its tricky to know. You can check out your engine like I've done (check timing chain slack, valve lift, compression etc.)and if it all looks reasonable go for the low-buck appro

Hi Peter, I guess it's an example of where do you stop once you start. If the cam is replaced I've understood that replacing the valve springs as well is also a good idea. They're all part of the sam

Thanks for the thoughts Rich. I basically agree that there is not much point in upgrading some of the engine as it will put undue pressure on the rest of it. My engine's history is unkown to me as I
