Nice bro, I have a bottom end if you are planning on rebuilding it anyway. Has pretty decent compression too. Just could do with new seals and bearings etc, which you will be doing anyway.

Advice on a good product to remove the glue?

Any strong solvent to soften it up then water blast it off.

^ As per Polley's advice in a thread I had, I used spray degreaser and a water blaster.

Buy CRC or similar degreaser, the $3 a can supercheap stuff doesn't work really - go figure.

Spray then let soak in, then nuke it with the waterblaster, use a paint scraper/putty knife to help peel the glue off, then repeat, then once the glue is thin enough the rest can be wiped off with meths.

Takes a while but the result is good, just be careful about shooting the waterblaster on edges/loose paint because it will blow off easy as.

I used engine start on mine. It waterblasted right off, needed no cleaning afterwards.

Desolvit and a scraper. Works mint. Or a heatgun.

Wax and grease remover (prepsol or supercheap stuff), and a rag. Won't take much time, or too much effort. And no powertools required. (That sorta job is what this sh*t is made for!!!)

Bored thread update!

Well since I last posted here I've done a couple of cosmetic things.

Stripped the crap foam from my bonnet, painted the underside cosmo to match the car, new insulation and decorated a panel B)
