Update time

Picked car upnsaturday afternoon from pro alloy and as always the work they have done is awesome

They made
Rad with fan
Header tank
Laminova
Brake and clutch resovoir
Dry sump tank
Engine breather
Water pump outlet

The dry sump tank isn't fully finished and all work will be powder coated black but it's not worth doing till final build incase it gets scratched

I'll let the pics do the talking
