    Good evening all

    I’ve got a redtop to go into my s15,

    I’m just about to start a freshen up on the Engine, I’ve got new exhaust gaskets and new water pipes , new plugs .what else do people recommend doing whilst it’s on the engine stand ???

    Many thanks

    Ben

    Depends on your budget? Oil pump is always a good call. Maybe timing chain?

    I wasn’t thinking of going that extreme ,

    I’ve stripped it down for a good clean , and new pipework etc, going to give it a paint and the cam cover needs love too

    Rear main seal? Easier to do when off the stand but worth doing before it goes back in the hole

    Fresh/urethaned engine mounts are worth doing while engine is out too
