Right little update
mainly the engine at the moment as i am trying to concentrate on getting that ready to go in!
so here it is, cleaned up and ready to be painted!
the rocker cover and the inlet manifold is being powdercoated by sir ~nomad~ himself after FF. The rocker cover is going to be red and inlet black with polished raised pieces...or maybe alternate colours on the letter (red lettering on black manifold etc...)
so im thinking of colouring the sump red and the block black??? what you think?
also, cleaned up my outlet for some high temp spraying
(going black )
and also my own little turbo
with its own little ford stamp
hmmm i wonder what other turbo would bolt onto there

nice one mate!!
think a red rocker cover with the raised area polished will look cool, as would a red sump and black block
DO IT

You'll have to excuse Rich, he's deteriorated into a triple poster since his back rendered him a chair-bound cabbage
Red sump sounds a little garish Silver always looks good...sup to you though! What boost are you going to run?

mate black block and black sump would look loads better and bring it back to how it would look from a factory finish.
plus with a black sump it aint going to show marks or dirt as bad as any other color.
getting along well with it tho mate.
