So you'd recommend the engine enamel then?
Ian
Yes I would, not sure how much the prep work helps (POR15 metal prep etc) but the enamel goes on really well and looks great. My only issue is the skill of the painter (!) couple drips which i need to flat out and repaint.
Im doing the head and other all'y components in Eastwood Aluma, having seen it in the flesh on another build. Hopefully will look the part.

Looking good Baggins, amazing work so far! You can do mine next.
Yours runs a little better than mine at the moment G!

Keen to progress the rebuild of the head but i'm struggling to find valves and springs anywhere - tried usual suspects (GSF /Euro / VWH / CVW) without success. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I've now got my new injectors and seats fitted, after getting the threads tapped due to some historical damage.

Update for anyone interested:
Springs available from Brickwerks.co.uk:
078109623A (outer)
078109633A (inner)
8 of each
£177.12 (plus del)
Also available from vwsupply.co.uk, but more expensive.
Springs/Valves available from Oemvwshop (Slovakia!) - havent found valves anywhere else yet so may have to go down this route - anyone used them?
