cheers mate, i think il get under it 2moro and start fitting brake lines etc, realli dont want to though lol

rst in breaking · 17-11-2007, 07:48 PM

didnt really do anything today

, dropped pistons, crank, rods, bolts, clutch and flywheel etc to be balanced

and crank is to have a 10 though re grind. set up engine stand ready for when parts are done. hopefully if weather is dry 2moro il get out and work on it

frsjon · 17-11-2007, 08:23 PM

love it mate...one day im going to have one of these...

rst in breaking · 17-11-2007, 11:01 PM

cheers mate, its only a 1.1. shell, just a very expensive one

, engine is costing a fortune, new nuts, bolts, pumps, seals, for gaskets, crank regrind, shells and mains and balancing etc is costing alot more than first planned but i plan on building it to last instead of a slap together and wahooo it runs then after 300 miles it has no oil pressure

, do it right and it should see you right if looked after i believe

rst in breaking · 18-11-2007, 04:34 PM

not much progress today, got all loom in the inner arch in conduet, hooked up on the hooks welded up on inner arch to hold it and zip tied into place, solder and connect indicators to loom through hole in inner wing, and fit servo on passenger side as it never had one before and made a plate to match conteur of bulkhead where servo bolts up to reinforce

, couldnt get any pics due to it starting to rain

, will take one of the plate tho

little progress though lol, ahhh also brough a tubular manifold of ebay, but will require a t3 flange welding on.

rst in breaking · 18-11-2007, 04:35 PM
