	A good family friend wants me to do the headgasket on his pride and joy, his fwd Elan. Now I work on loads of oddball stuff, everything from tractors to GrpB rally cars, so I don't mind a challenge. But have any of you RR members done one??

	it is an Izuzu 1.6 16v so shouldn't be difficult. From vague memory of the one my mate had access wasn't too bad.
