    Ill take a few snapshots of the progress if i can.

    lol @ head bolts, flanges and head gasket and compression being lost.

    No you need manifold studs, manifold gasket and nuts as well as a lower wire ring gasket.
  24. #24
    possibly the new springs and bolts to fag you recon? to go woth the lower 'fire ring'
  25. #25
    If he bought the supersprint new it will come with a special fitting kit and possibly the wire ring, it uses M10 bolts like the raceland and it's own special springs.
