    Whoo hoo!! All fixed and the old girl is running like it off the factory floor. So in the end I did the work myself, more rewarding for me and the bank account. Got new lifters under warranty, and thinking mech timed it up wrong. I checked it and it was out slightly. Sorted now and memories of how much I love my patrol coming back. Can't wait to hit the tracks.

    guys what the word?
    i got ticking on the rb30 after valve timing and oil/filter change. not too worried though.
    i figure its the thiner oil caz what came out was thick and black, now its still nice and yellow.
    was gonna get a second hand head and maybe swap some stuff around between them
