You and me both then Yozzer. I'm taking the engine out of my 400 probably this week for a complete overhaul. We can compare broken and rattley bits as we progress ;D ;D

Second thoughts forget the pictures can we have a video blog :) :) :)
It could get nasty Paul. I'm not the best person in the world for listening to peoples advice at the best if times. I can't even say to Trig 'so you think you know better' or 'what the hell do you know about it' .........so, there could be testing times ahead ::) ::) ::)

Video blog, your having a laugh, I'm sure it's not advisable to film murder Paul. Anyway, I will have enough trouble just finding the right size spanners / sockets / hammers etc to worry about filming it !!!. I will start a thread on it though so you can all have a laugh ;D ;D

Fabulous timing for a couple of 400 rebuilds !
I'm half way through my rebuild with engine stripped and cleaned, but a trip to the hospital has put things on hold for a bit, so a couple of rebuild threads will hopefully get me back into it !
Can I ask which ever one of you gets their head off first to give me a cylinder liner OD dimension please so I can check if mine is still std
Many thanks, and good luck !

I am keen to watch this thread!!
Out of interest would you only strip if there was an issue.. my 76 has done 31k, runs fine, no smoke, no rattles and revs and pulls nicely. I see so many people doing refurbs that strip the engine.
As I have no issues I'm tempted to give the 400 a good service, lick of fresh paint , and a full tune up and get some miles on her... and see how she does. Would most agree this is the best policy?
