Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer

New gaskets behind the TB back cover plates.
Important for TB protection.



Before the arrival of the parts from Japan, wanted to finish as much as possible
so although it’s going to be duplicated tasks,
decided to install the old WP and TB in order to carry out the
time consuming marathon 4Hr valve clearance adjustment.






Removed the old sealant from the WP bolts and the oil cooler bracket.





Although wrapped the engine, I’m afraid this has to come off now.





Cam gears torqued to the spec.





Old WP and TB installed temporarily.
These have to come off again when installing the water passage and
the V-bank pipe for inspection.
