Just thought I may as well post this up on here..

Received my SFS hoses on Thursday and managed to test fit them yesterday which meant getting the engine back into place..

Managed to strip the engine down ready for the machine shop for when I have the money to buy the internals..

So far it's looking good as the cylinder bores have no scoring at all and even the bearings were looking spotless considering it has never had a rebuild as far as I am aware..
