    Does it have the later timing chain fitted? Usual issues with these seem to be suspension, the standard billys start knocking after a while. They can be rebuilt, a few traders offer this. AYC pump is unsurprisingly prone to failure. You can get a relocation kit to move it to the boot. Standard rods will need replacing if you want to go for more power as they aren't great.



    I bought mine with a lot of work already done. It's currently sat at 481/447, want to get it to 500/500 but it would cost a fair bit so I'll just enjoy it as it is for now.
