For some reason I can't turn the oil cap any more. This has got me a bit lost. I'm going to have another beer and think about it.

Umm. I like oil caps.

I can still get the cap off, but I have to rip the top off it and then turn the plastic bit underneath. At least I didn't hit my big black cat as I was driving in. (This is only in fun, I changed rocker covers. I will post the photo of the dents where the roller gear was hitting it. Just some late night entertainment. I hope you like my sense of humour!)

Buy a can of 710. It helps with tight spots like that

Yes the HOs don't suck enough that's why I have to get rid of it. I reckon Edenbrook is the way to go. Maybe I can get the oil cap off then. Here's a piccie of the dents from the old rocker covers - pieces of crap too.

Thanks for your nice reply. Very interested in the manifold you've gone for, I am at the point where I need to change mine, since the inlet side is the last bit to complete my project. Will dig out a couople of photos and post them today.
