There' s a good guide to dismantling the Tiger on the Tankzone site http://www.tankzone.co.uk/pages/hl_upgrade_guide.htm one of the better things they have on there.
One thing you mention is turning the Mantlet the correct way round - if you have a new Tiger you do not need to do that any more, as they have corrected it on the newer versions.

That's great thank you, I'll check the mantlet then the guy in the shop said it was the latest model i think the barrel is the correct lenth to

Your right jonger! That's a bonus Christ i would have changed it back the wrong way!
