    easy or hard?????

    i paid about £2000 for a brand new coscast short engine when you see the casting of it you can see how much better the new castings are. then fitted it myself which i actually found easier than removing the heads! i reinstalled complete with the exhaust manifolds and heat shields on

    easy or hard?????

    down load a copy of rave as this is very helpful bonnet does indeed fold over and it has latches to hold it there.
