In Vic rust must not be visable. That dosn't mean you have to fix it properly. A quick bog and paint and it's considered road worthy down here.

engine specs:
l20b block
86.5mm flat top hypatec pistons
a87 head ported by mark bunyard
oversized valves. cant remember exact sizes it was ages ago i got it done i think 44 inlet and 36?? exh
rather large cam recommended by mark
fresh bottom, linished crank, new bearings throughout, std rods
i have a matching set of 45 webers and a datrallly manifold to go on.

little bit more saving to go then brakes and suspension will be underway and along with that the fresh motor will drop. things are finally moving along well
