Well Cruizinimage have delivered, quite literally! Ordered my pistons Sunday night, on my doorstep this afternoon. I won't even get them to Bryan that quick!

We have always found their delivery service excellent. On one occasion, I ordered a few piston / ring kits on the Tuesday lunchtime and they arrived Friday morning.

OK Dom. Send me a PM as a reminder and I'll get back to you when I'm back home, (and everyone else that's sent me PM's whilst I'm on my holibobs). Many thanks

Today was project crankcases, I've had a few evenings to begin prep work on them so this morning was a cycle in the dishwasher then a dry out followed my a rub down with a scotchbrite. Because of the lovely weather I was able to get them out in the sun, I made a cardboard box spray booth and hit them with multiple coats of Simoniz aluminium VHT paint that I'd been warming in a jug of hot water, masking up probably took as long as the prep. The finish is pretty good considering the weathered surface on my cases, I think they've been sand blasted due to the bare finish they came to me in and wonder if that might explain the top end wear?
Tomorrow is bake day so I'll fire up the gas bbq, is 2hrs enough at 200 degrees?
