sum of the overhaul parts alone without labour is twice the price of a lexus engine   of course you then have to spend the coin on the rest...

Thats a real bugger Nigel...

Have a chat with Ross Calgher in Waitara Taranaki.

He specialises in british v8's, and usually has bucket loads of bits around for them.

He's built quite few decent horsepower alloys in his time...

Hi Nigel,
Have you checked your valley gasket? It may have pressurised. Mine did the same and dumped oil all over the place, but with a new valley gasket sealed really well and some alteration to the breathers it runs as sweet as ever. Harcourt Engines in Prebleton have plenty of bits and new gaskets.
Good Luck

[Nigel]

was a new valley gasket

will pull the engine in the in the week end to find what went wrong

Give it a clean, maybe it just an oil filter seal. But dont the P76 leak anyway?
