Any pics of the copper gasket and Beru sealing rings and is the head or block machined for the rings ?

I'm sure we will be looking back in 5 years wondering why we stuck to the 8v. I've already asked myself that a number of times. I keep coming back to simplicity and that I don't need any more power really. It's just nice to have.

I've no doubt that the 16v would be a significant leap forward Sid, but as you've seen yourself, the 8v is still 'Ok' in some respects. If it turns out that I can't get away with keeping my current pistons in the rebuild then I may still go with the 16v S head that is also on offer. Nice to have alternatives.

I normally run around 13-14 psi. I used to run 15 psi, however my but dyno did not notice any change in power by dropping it.
