Anyone proposing to pull the valves from the top to simply replace vss and do nothing else... really not sure as to what would be an appropriate comparison. Anyone considering that option should probably speak to an engine builder first for some professional advice. 1 look at the condition of a head, chain and guides in There things tells the story and if 80% of the Labour is done...
Thanks hot thats reassuring seeing there is so many other things that can go wrong on the N54
