So the blow of valve make me smile like a kid but the supercharger is in desperate need of a full service!

Thanks bennyk, will have a go with heat gun on low setting.

You might be able to warm them up and very gently try to prize them off without stretching them, they're really hard to buy, I've got a brand new o/s one in my shed but can't find one for the n/s for shit!!

Pictured is a spacer plate to reduce compression chap. Then you get a Victor Reinz head gasket as it a multi layer. So you can split the gasket and sandwich the spacer plate in the middle job done! There is an Elring version of the head gasket that is also a multi layer unit. They are around £30-£40 cheaper. However it has been reported they eventually leak. I will get all the links PM'd to you today fella.

My daily is an auto to be fair! Travelling around here where you don't get past 3rd very often its a godsend! Also when doing the long motorway journeys with out current roadwork situation I couldn't fault it! Laters

Ha! I've always had manuals but to be fair I'm enjoying the ease and it does cruise nicely

Thanks Dave you would save me a few hour trawling the net looking for the head studs and pump, is the gasket you got a low compression one ? I have seen some on eBay for £100 but not sure I wanna risk a eBay special for the time to fix if it goes wrong.

So had the donor car delivered straight away and started stripping it! Then Michael turned up to return my Ross Tech cable he stole and he left with half the engine bits. As it turns out he bought a car without any bits on it for a small fortune I heard it was a rolling shell with no wheels (JOKE MIKE ITS COOL) However got to the bits I wanted as the car sounded great by the way!
