Not JUST the 12a, early 13b's upto 1985 had coolant O-rings in the housings aswell... like the GLS-SE you guys in the states got.

What I really want to find are the 6 port endplates from a Euro spec FC

I would almost be willing to sacrifice an arm. (But then I'd need an auto tranny also)

I used Devcon on mine and made the same thing. I've got pics just not developed yet. Where the wall in the port is when you remove the sleeve you simply build up a nice ramp and then port it. Clean it really good and put the devcon in the port in small quantities avoiding air pockets. After the ramp of devcon has cured for a few days, we ported it and then lapped the plate. They turned out real pretty. Its suggested to port match the lower intake also.

Your arm isin't worth it. Save it as you'll need two hands to work on your engine.
