Yea i realise that could happen. but you'd think that they'd say whether theyd be rushing it. they seemed really calm. time will tell.

*UPDATE*
got the call this morning. the bores are perfect, and so looks like my 70Ks are genuine :P so theyre chucking in new bearings, and rings (I think), and giving the head a grind and stuff. Also a 265? cam is going in. My new steering rack is also going in. all should be good on friday with the price of about half of another mini lol. :P These guys are great 8)
