Bongo Fury

Hello folks, I am a bit chipper tonight considering that I won't be suffering much longer from 'Bongo Syndrome' or 'BS' for short.

I have paid my entry dues into the Bongo Club let me tell ya! BongoBlues has boosted my intake of anti-depresents too!

Seriously though; I wanted to share each step of the way so that any unsuspecting BongoNut might capitalize on my experience complete w/pics too!

The following link should direct you back to "another looming head job" the originating thread:

I continue to add more pics as the job progresses on my 'DropBox' site. I will post new uploaded pictures shortly and provide you a link for viewing.

this is the link to my pics:

Excellent work matey!!

Today I encountered a few minor setbacks. The Head Gasket Set appears to be missing some parts. Specifically the oil filler-to-head gasket & top water inlet-to-head.

Does anybody know about the little micro "O" ring between #2 & #3 cylinder

It is not in the gasket set I ordered. So, where is it?

Help

I called my UK supplier - as it turned out they had opened the head set to remove the valve guide seals [not required for a built head], and must have droppped the little bag containing all the rubber based seals. They are sending a set out today!
