that's beautiful has it always been on full synth?
... after piston soak I've noticed a drastic reduction in oil consumption ...
message me if you need any help or advice!
Fordy, for info, it's recommended that new con rod big-end cap bolts are used when refitting as they are 'stretch' bolts (part # 90537293 - screw, connecting rod (8 reqd)). They are £1.16 + VAT each from Vx dealers but currently none available in UK so they're having to back order from Germany.
Also, ensure that the bearing caps are marked relative to the con rod piston number so that they are refitted back to the respective con rod.
Hope that's useful
