aswell as the uprated gear linkages
#228: Re: Mattie® R3 Turbo Author: Mattie-RS, Location: A Track near you ;)Posted: Fri May 07, 2010 11:40 am ---- Head gasketg and decomp
New head bolts
Also took the top and bottom mounts off to swap over for 206 ones
New vs Old
For some reason the bottom one only had the part where the drive shaft goes through
New vs Old
Does anyone know if the fly wheel is the same on the 16v and 8v?
The bottom end looks identical between both 8v and 16v

I'm not just saying that because I have the DTA, but I have the DTA because I did the research
#234: Re: Mattie® R3 Turbo Author: Mattie-RS, Location: A Track near you ;)Posted: Sat May 22, 2010 4:12 am ---- So the engine is finally back together
Nice thick head gasket
DOHC
Torque wrench and instructions on gasket
Bolts in and new thickness
New timing kit
Dodgy looking water pump, that was a basterd to get out :/
As in pic, it just kepted on braking till it came out
I seem not to have a pic of the new pump and the engine stood up complete
