quick update everyone...

engine is now ready for the dyno...after revisions to the exhaust manifold, breather, and a few other bits and bobs, then engine is finally ready! :banana: :banana: :banana:

Just gotta pick up a few bolts that i have lost over the build from Alex tomo (cheers mate!) and we are on the way to sorting the dyno session....

i will hopefully get an exact date for when the dyno mapping session can be taken and will take it from there

engine ready and waiting to go:







also one of the gearbox as it stands at CTS:


and check this for a christmas present

I thought you were going straight cut with the gearbox? Or has it literally just been cracked open in that shot?

What's that at the rear left of the cam cover? Funny looking stud

Hope it gets run up sooner rather than later

reli nice mate , you put alot of work into it , would be a shame to see you sell it, dont do it mate or at least get the zt fitted first , would be a shame to see it go to the wrong person, you should finish it for yourself mate

[ScottP]

Looking good anyway dude
