reganlives Why they do advise it to be the last thing to do? Bit weird....
Stav's explanation makes sense to me! Clean them then use them right away, why is that so weird? That way you know they are good when you fit them, rather than have them knocking about your garage for months after cleaning.

Cam covers are now nicely painted, just need the wife with her steady hand to repaint the lettering

Engine is painted, and this is the main hold at the moment, getting the cash together for rod bearings and rings.
I keep spending my savings on the little bits like fuel fittings etc, amazing how much they cost when you add it all up
