I expect everyone knows the bit about p90a being hydraulic tappets isn't universally true. And they didn't only come on turbos. But they definitely do produce good power.

I've learned something here!  Thanks @LeonV and @Sailor Bob

I was going on the P79 I had that didn't have the hole for the pump, sorry.

And I agree with LeonV, my 10 lb. Tilton flywheel was the best upgrade for the money or "bang for buck".  My 2.4 revs like a motorcycle.

Works really well with a cheap Exedy 6009 clutch kit.

More interesting long forgotten stuff in boxes. Recieved from motorsport in 2009. Seems to be perfect.

That sounds familiar! Have you been in my shop? ?

Trying to get the thermostat housing off the old engine. Enthusiasm snapped off the long bolt head and im guessing the bolt is rust seized. Perfect thermostat in it. Frustration is slowly turning to hammer time.
