Osara,

I haven't had to take the head off a modern Triumph, but I do have experience of cars with wet liners which were a real pain if you didn't get the seal right. You just end up having to take the thing apart again if it leaks.

It's a fair bit of work to dismantle the engine that far, so you have to weigh up the risk of having to do it again if you get a leak.

As it happens, I'm going to my Triumph dealer tomorrow. If I get the chance, I'll speak to the senior mech. and ask what he thinks. I know he's had a few of these motors in pieces so he might be able to advise.

Cheers.
