Are you doing anything to cams and compression? Chain ramps? Chains? Folks are getting the coated bearing now adays? Did you have cylinders re-honed? re-treated?
(I have a 79 Euro with 79 Euro motor).
Good luck,

I did take apart the pump, cleaned and re-oiled. Everything looked fine.
Not sure I am going to do anything to the cams but I am open to opinions. I am no longer tracking this car and always enjoyed what I have...like I said I could be persuaded.
New chains and ramps have been purchased.
All new pistons and cylinders. Destroyed 2 pistons and took a huge chunk out of a cylinder that could not be serviced.
