Small block Chevy V8 was blowing steam from the LH bank. Suspected blown head gasket. Didn't expect to find 8 1/2 ltrs of sludge in the sump (there should only be 4 1/2 ltrs of oil). Massive clean up of engine internals, new good quality gaskets and now will be fine for many more miles.

You can see on the picture of the gasket where it had failed between the water jacket and cylinder sealing ring.

My Jaguar XK140 has fresh paint! Plenty of hours has been spent prepping the body before final painting in this beautiful British Racing Green colour. The engine is back in, after painting the engine bay in matching colour and I am starting the trimming of the interior. New carpets and underlay, headlining and other parts have arrived. Bonnet, doors and boot lid are in primer ready for colour. Still have to sort out the wood trim but its coming along nicely. Very excited....

The Range Rover Classic is finished and is now up for sale. If anyone is interested please contact me. The new 4.6ltr engine is fantastic. Just have a couple of finishing touches (badges, stereo and final polish) and will be ready for a new owner.
