1st,

Thanks for reply - I tried the method recommended to get the valve lash adjusters pressured up - I can actually feel the clatter - perhaps "knock" is a better term, through the clutch pedal - the noise is pretty incredible so I am gonna have to stick with blown engine - spun bearing, perhaps.

How did your rebuild go? Anything really strange or pretty straightforward?

Appreciate any advice on best place to order rebuild kits.

Thanks, again.
