Sounds simple but it was quite a process and took possibly 5 hours? It's also looking like nearly every valve is just out of spec. I need to see if there's anything I can swap about as this could get quite expensive. The VTEC valves need whole new buckets rather than shims and they're £25 each. There's 8 of them! Then there's the £200 of gaskets etc for reassembly too!
Nothing about it sounds simple to me !
