Waarmee het jy die head (valves) en piston so mooi skoon gemaak?

Many recommend fitting the APE manual timing chain adjuster - should consider it while you are about it.

Also the tappet cover bolts are notorious for leaking oil through the threads and onto the header etc. These need careful attention with silicone to prevent you having to go back in there … been there done that!

Great rebuild.

+1 on the manual cam chain tensioner.
The shavings in the oil could be from the disintegrating clutch washers, mine was gone at 10 000km and also destroyed the plate that holds them in, had to replace that and the springs as they were also damaged by being so loose. I posted pictures at the time, will see if I can find a link.
You are really doing a great job. How many Km's has the engine done?

Good news gentelmen, I got the quote on the washers and rivets, a set consisting of 12 washers and 3 rivets will be R422.00.
I should have them in my hands in a week or so, depending on how fast I can get a gap to collect when they are finished.
I have ordered quite a lot as these guys don't want to talk to you unless you order hundreds (preferably thousands). Anyway we will have enough for the 10 Huskies in South Africa and then some.

Good job!

Are the washers hardened ?

Yip they are made from the Bohler equivalent of EN24 and I will heat treat them myself in a foil packet and temper them to around 48Rc, so they will be much harder than the stock washers and also very tough. Just remember to polish the ends of the slot in the gear where the washers press up against as the slot is sheared out and the edges are rough. Just use a stick with some sandpaper folded over it to sand the ends smooth, 360 or 220 grit should do.
