Thats it mate i was told it a few weeks ago and thought it was worth a shot because even when i drained all the oil out, the dipstick was still picking up quite alot of that gunk, but it all seems fine now :) engine even sounds alot healthier :)

Plans sound awesome mate :) it's near exactly what I'd do if I had the time
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

1 way is to to take the paint off and just let nature rust it out slightly then some lacquer it so it has the effect
If it ain't green and black send it back :D

Spraying it with salt water helps it rust once you get down to bare metal. And make sure its 100% dry and moisture free before lacquering or it will rot away
