Ontopic The new car-seching thread

The pictures included with the reviews are hilarious. The only good ratings are from people who received it quickly. Low expectations.

I finally got all the parts to replace the head, settled on a color I liked to repaint the head, cleaned and prepped everything, chased threads on the old bolts and inspected new bolts, gather everything up and clean up my work area then remove the old head I had on the engine to keep stuff out of the cylinders

And I remembered that I had two snapped bolts in the case.

So I think on how I want to remove them and settle for trying to drill them out. One problem with drilling them out is that it is a pain in the ass to get the bit centered. So I 3D printed some stuff.

Turned out nicely.

Oh and for whatever reason, all the coachwork on the car is SAE, while the engine is all metric. Had to go and pick up a set of SAE taps and dies to chase the threads as we go.
