We're getting there...

....Pretty much all the jobs I wanted to do are finished now.

Just got the windscreen and radiator to do - then a full service and it's all good.

I've done about 300 miles now since refitting the manifolds. Going to have to tighten them up again shortly, but oil pressure is good - temp could be better (due to knackered rad), power seems fine. Ticking has gone. (Horay)
