After having to move the old girl (sat for nearly 3 years) to cut the hedges that were growing into it i felt a bit guilty so treated her to a bit of a clean up. Even the missus was disgusted at the state of the moss, cobwebs and s**te all over the paint!

Still comes up well though, engine bay needs a little tlc! Lots of spiders living in there!!

Before (doesnt really show how bad it was!)





After







Engine looking sorry for itself.



Now will sit there for a few more years collecting moss Thumbs down Thumbs down

Yep. Xsi head as well! Xsi covers mean you can run the single coil ( can't run multi coils on dta)

Why the XSI head? I've got a 6 engine sat around that had an XSI head on it and was never sure why

larger inlet valves. Plus the ports are smaller in the head which gives more scope to work with when working the head.

You can as mine runs a single coil on a RS head but that's not the main reason.

Larger inlet valves slightly and with smaller ports to work from gives a lot more meat in that area to really work them as wanted.
