Jim, not printed it yet but will do before the end of March which is when it'll be done. cc

Yes, I didn't want to sell the last set but needed the cash at the time.

Well I knew it had to be done at some point so I've gathered the parts to replace the chains and tensioners along with tappets and 263 cams. Clutch was done a couple of thousand miles back and I've replaced/refurbed most of the cooling system. Most of the replaceable engine parts have already been done, stuff like water pump and aux pump, thermostat and housing, various sensors etc. I decided to go with the INA tappets from German Ebay as seen on this page - http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?75467-VR6-Hydraulic-Tappet-Lifter-Part-Number/page2&highlight=ina+tappets Made myself a cam locking tool too. Hopefully this lot will be fitted next month.

Yep sure, you can pay now if you prefer.

My money is on the foliage seal leaking.

Between 1 and 2 weeks.

If you're talking about the rusty 'leg' that sits to the left of the bracket then yes you have it in the correct orientation. I think it stops the threaded fastener underneath turning when tightening up the bolt.

If they've been on the car from new then yes they're at risk of breaking on removal.

I think I've got one but not sure which side without looking, one of the fixing pins is broken off.

Yes, will reply later.

PM sent.

Thanks for the kind words. Looks good Andy! I'll start a new thread if I decide to start making them.

Defo coilpack, see here http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?76067-more-of-the-storm-red-VR6/page4

If you have a coilpack then you don't have a distributor and rotor arm.

It's a little more than I'd like to spend as I'm doing chains and tensioners too. c

Looks like these are more suited to higher revving race engines, almost twice the price of standard.

Just been in touch with Vince at Stealth, INA tappets are £7+vat each, then delivery on top.

Chris, I've got a spare set in my shed, will have a look later. Dave

Any opinions on these?

Jon, Yeah that would help. Drop me a PM with dates/times etc. Dave

They look like the correct ones but there is no INA part number mentioned to check against the INA catalogue here http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?79499-Alternative-INA-Lifters. The size is correct though.

Are these still available from Stealth? Can't seem to find them on Ebay or anywhere else.

I've got one off a 93 valver if the above falls thru.

I've been watching the numbers on this and hoping we can get this fully booked, come people get ya names down, surely we can beat a measly 53 car turnout at Brooklands.
