Cheers Nath, apart from stuff done today, I've not touched this for the last 6 months!

I painted the gearbox and cleared the garage as a work area this morning so hopefully some good progress soon. I feel like I'm back into it!

The weather turning colder meaning this won't be used so much will probably help too.

Self lightened, they need bits shaving off as they interfere with the titanium valve retainers otherwise. I spent a shocking amount of time getting it to work and balancing them out, not an incredible weight saving, but it all helps.

Gotcha! :) I know lightened rocker choices are rather limited for the H22 and those that are available are FOOKING expensive, so I did wonder ;)

This is a good read a little late ! https://www.kstuned.com/blogs/knowledge ... -h-f-block
What power figure you hoping for just wondering if your injectors are big enough!
If it looks like jobby and smells like jobby it probably is jobby!
