Capri - Restoration (2) White 1972 1600 XL [11]

Next to go together was the sump & the gaskets can be a bit fiddly to hold in place. I then started on the cylinder head & continued cleaning with a smaller wire brush which got lots of stuff out of the chambers. The valves were then re-seated and I started to put the springs back on. I always find this difficult as I don’t seem to have the strength to hold the valve clamp down & put in the collets. Eventually after a lot of huffing & puffing, they were all back together, so now the head is ready to bolt on. It is all coming together but tomorrow I need a rest day.
