got a few little problems, the indicator stalks dont marry up to the loom and ive a couple spare plugs i cant make sense of but the hardest part is done!


was planning on painting the engine up and cleaning a few other bits since i didnt have an engine crane, but i got bored of that and just dropped the engine out. With no crane i erm... improvised

note the head isnt on, just sitting in place for a pic lol, some1 hasnt put the service bolt in the cam on the new head and its out of line so im getting some help with that so didnt want to take the cams out to put the head on until ive sorted that.

didnt get any before and after pics but everything looks 10xs better.

ive taken off the fly wheel and used the gearbox sandwich plate from th n/a and refitted it with the new exedy paddle clutch, going back up there today to get the gearbox and transfer box fitted, might even get the engine in tonight! still waiting on a few bits to come tho:( so i might have to do the timing belt when the engines in the car which is a pain but just cant wait to get it in.

the speedline competition 2's are getting refurbed this week too there going dark bronze along with the rocker cover and a few little bits in the bay.

comments welcome!
