No need to take the engine out, can be easyly done with engine in situ.

Brace yourself for the price of the parts thou. you will be paying in excess of £600 for them, as you are more than likely going to need all 12 valves replacing and a top end gasket set.

Let me know if you need any parts information/technical data.

Thanks bud, I didnt know I could just pull the head off, it sure looks tight in there. Spoke to Honda UK and sure enough it was around £600 for the bits. Been given a contact in Japan who seems cheaper, but who knows after vat and delivery and charge for this that and the other. Anyway whatever gota get this beat beating again.....
