Re: Twiss' LWB Build
Got the block in sort of the right place today... missing the engine mount brackets though.
Spins free and cylinder walls aren't scored so might be OK
The head however is a different story so the search for another will begin!

Mostly dismantled the head, apart from the valves... Everything in there looks OK, mostly the mating surface that is shit

Wow, you sure aren't doing things by halves are you? Nice choice buddy!
If it ticks over...leave it
Re: Twiss' LWB Build
Looking good I must say!
Is this going to be a slightly longer version of your SJ?
Is the rear going to be done out like a limousine, I know you like your comforts!

Re: Twiss' LWB Build
Yeah its going to be a slightly longer and slightly turbocharged version of mine
Will probably get a 1.6 16v eventually!
Wheelbase is 93.5" I think? Samurai is 80"
